Photosynthesis is the process of plants turning light into a useful energy that they need to survive. Plants need to survive so that animals can live off of them and the oxygen that they produce. Without photosynthesis, life would not be possible-- wait, I shouldn't say that; there are organisms that live on the bottom of the ocean who never see light and they survive.
Well, as far as human and mammalian life is concerned, photosynthesis is necessary for life. That's how it effects your daily life: by ensuring that it continues.
The primary source of energy for nearly all life is the Sun. The energy in sunlight is introduced into the biosphere by a process known as photosynthesis, which occurs in plants, algae and some types of bacteria. Photosynthesis can be defined as the physico-chemical process by which photosynthetic organisms use light energy to drive the synthesis of organic compounds. The photosynthetic process depends on a set of complex protein molecules that are located in and around a highly organized membrane. Through a series of energy transducing reactions, the photosynthetic machinery transforms light energy into a stable form that can last for hundreds of millions of years. This introductory chapter focuses on the structure of the photosynthetic machinery and the reactions essential for transforming light energy into chemical energy.
Photosynthesis in plants and a few bacteria is responsible for feeding nearly all life on Earth. It does this by taking energy from the sun and converting it into a storable form, usually glucose, which plants use for their own life processes. Animals that consume plants also make use of this energy, as do those that consume those that consume plants, and so on to the top of the food chain.
As important a job as making all of the world's food is, there's another vital function that photosynthesis performs: It generates the oxygen that oxygen-breathing animals need to survive. But here we animals repay the favor. We exhale the carbon dioxide that plants need for photosynthesis.
Well oxygen is a waste product of plants during photosynthesis so we get oxygen from plants and they use up CO2 for photosynthesis, so i guess plants regulate how much CO2 is in the air. hope this helps!
photosynthesis is the only way by which used oxygen is compensated.timber, teak are the products of photosynthesis. it helps us to get natural gas.some autotrophic bacteria prepares food only by photosynthesis.we either directly or indirectly depend on photosynthesis.
Basically the CO2 we breathe out and is produced by cars and factories, etc. is combined with water and in the prescence of sunlight converterted to glucose (sugar) and oxygen. So if it weren't for plants, there would be no oxygen to breathe or any way to reduce the CO2 we emit daily...let alone produce the basic compound for energy.

6CO2 + 12H20 => sunlight => C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6O2.

photosynthesis helps us live it gives us food and makes plants even more helpfull
it allows our lives to exist.............................photosynthesys is the #1 way we store energy from the sun.............................
without it we would not last very long............
