Summary Introduction
Photosynthesis is a chemical process, where the plants organically capture energy from the sunlight or fix the energy of the sun. The major product of the photosynthesis mechanism is carbohydrates, such as glucose, and oxygen. The oxygen molecules are released into the atmosphere.

You must represent this phase in the form of a cycle indicating the parts of carboxylation, reduction, generation of hexoses and regeneration. Ribulose, CO2, rubisco, phosphoglycerate (PGA), bisphosphoglycerate, phosphoglyceraldehyde (PGAL), ATP, ADP, NADPH, NADP, kinase, fructose, and glucose should appear.arrow_forward

They use the ATP and NADPH that are produced during the light-dependent reactions. They convert the 6-carbon sugars into 5-carbon sugars. They obtain the energy directly from the Sun. They use the ADP and carbon dioxide produced during the light-dependent reactions.arrow_forwardCarbon dioxide is required for which of the following processes in photosynthesis? a) the Calvin cycle b) the splitting of water c) the absorption of water d) the production of ATP e) the light reactionarrow_forward
