Why is photosynthesis called the most important process on earth?

It is the only large-scale process that traps the energy of sunlight and stores it in organic compounds, so it is the source of the food of almost every living thing. It also releases the oxygen that most organisms need for respiration and removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

No citable source has been recorded for this record. Treat it as practice material, not as fact.

Explanation

Fossil fuels are the stored products of photosynthesis of the distant past.
