Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Photosynthesis is a process that takes place in green plants to construct complex organic compounds from water and carbon dioxide with the help of chlorophyll and sunlight. The whole process is completed in two steps; light reaction and dark reaction. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) production takes place in the light reaction of photosynthesis. This ATP is used to reduce
