Question
Chapter 13, Problem 48FB
Summary Introduction
To review:
The given blank space in the statement,“The products of the light reactions of photosynthesis are _______ and NADPH.”
Introduction:
The light reactions in photosynthesis are the mechanism used for energizing the electrons and synthesize different molecules required by the plant or an autotrophic organism. This reaction, in the evolved species of plants, requires PSI (photosystem I) and PSII (photosystem II). In less evolved species, or those living without oxygen, PSI-like and PSII-like complexes are used for reactions.
