How photosynthesis works. Or, how can you transform energy into matter?
In: Biology
Photosynthesis does not create energy into matter. What is does is converting carbon dioxide and water to sugar and oxygen. That process requires energy and there is where the sunlight comes in.

Technical mass is created in chemical bound but you add less than a billionth of the mass that way so it can be ignored.
