Photosynthesis primarily occurs in the leaf of a flowering plant. Leaves contain chlorophyll, which captures sunlight and allows the plant to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen through the process of photosynthesis. While other parts of the plant, such as green stems, can also perform some photosynthesis, the leaves are the main site for this process.
