Carbon dioxide from the air & water combine in the presence of sunlight to form sugars, oxygen is released because of this action

The net process of photosynthesis is described by the following equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O + Light Energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2

The energy of two photons of light is absorbed by chlorophyll molecules. They pass it to the reaction centers where that energy is used to split a water molecule. The H+ generated is used to create a gradient where enzymes use the electrical gradient from chemiosmosis and convert ADP into ADP. Other molecules like NADPH are formed and used to reduce CO2 to other organic chemicals. Those go through the Calvin cycle and sugar is eventually formed from the products.
