Chapter 10, Problem 15TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction: The photosynthesis is a process in which the green plants and algae obtain their nutrients using solar energy, carbon dioxide, and water. This process takes place in chloroplast where the chlorophyll molecules are present. The chloroplast contains thylakoid molecules where light reaction takes place. The end product of the light reaction is formation of ATP and NADPH. These energy storing molecules together help in driving the Calvin cycle in stroma of chloroplast.
