Paul Andersen explains the process of photosynthesis by which plants and algae can convert carbon dioxide into useable sugar. He begins with a brief description of the chloroplast.

He finishes with a discussion of photorespiration and strategies for avoiding this problem evolved in CAM and C4 plants.
