Chapter 37, Problem 6U
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The photosynthesis is a process through which the plants produce carbohydrates using the carbon dioxide, water, and the radiant energy. The different plants have developed different process to fix the maximum carbon. The three types of photosynthetic cycles are photorespiration, Calvin cycle, and Hatch-Slack pathway.
