Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Photosynthesis is the process seen in green plants in which carbon dioxide and water are converted into food in the presence of sunlight. This process has two steps which are light reaction and dark reaction.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Which of the following statements about the light reactions of photosynthesis is NOT true? Chlorophyll and other pigments absorb light energy, which excites electrons ATP is generated by photophosphorylation Electrons from water are given to the chlorophyll molecules of Photosystem! The splitting of water molecules provides a source of electrons
What is the overall outcome of the light reactions in photosynthesis?    NADPH and ATP molecules are produced during the light reactions and are used to power the light independent reactions. NADPH and ATP molecules are produced during the light reactions, which are used to power the light dependent reactions. Sugar and ATP are produced during the light reactions, which are used to power the light independent reactions. Carbon dioxide and NADPH are produced during the light reactions, which are used to power the light dependent reactions.
Which of the following does not occur in anoxygenic photosynthesis? Bacteriochlorophyll is involved in the light reaction. Water is split into oxidized and reduced parts. The system operates under anaerobic conditions. O ATP is formed via cyclic photophosphorylation.
