Abstract
Photosynthesis is a process to plants and trees, like mammals, some reptiles, some fish, and anything else that needs to breathe inhale and exhale. The usual parts of a leaf are: Upper Epidermis, Lower Epidermis, Mesophyll, Vascular Bundles (Veins), And Stomates.

Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar (Photosynthesis 1). When a plant goes the process of photosynthesis it is making its own food and the energy that is in the plant is consumed by humans and animals. We each such things as starch, and salads, and that gives us that extra energy from the plant.
Aerobic respiration and photosynthesis are reactions that help each other in the environment. They actually are the same, but just reacting in reverse, with in photosynthesis carbon dioxide and water slows glucose and oxygen down, the respiration process glucose and oxygen slows carbon dioxide and water down. They work well since living organisms supply plants with carbon dioxide that uses the process of photosynthesis and creates glucose and these plants and bacteria give out oxygen which all living organisms need for respiration (Photosynthesis 1).
Photosynthesis helps provide vitamin D for the plants, it helps them to make sugar and carbon dioxide it helps them make their own food for the animals and us. Here is a graph for a visual description:

Fermentation is a cellular process that does not use oxygen in which organic foods are converted into simpler compounds, and chemical energy (ATP) is produced. More specifically, fermentation can refer to the use of yeast to change sugar into alcohol or the use of bacteria to create lactic acid in certain foods. Fermentation occurs naturally in many different foods given the right conditions, and humans have intentionally made use of it for many thousands of years (Fermentation 1).
Enzymes are biological catalysts, in which they lower the energy of activations for the reaction. The less energy of the activation for a reaction, the faster the rate. However enzymes increasing in speed reacts by lowering activation
