The initial reactions in photosynthesis are know as the?

The initial reactions in photosynthesis are the light dependent reactions and the light independent reactions


How do you know that the processes photosynthesis and cellular respiration follow the law of conservation of mass?

All chemical reactions follow the law of conservation of mass, and the many reactions that make up photosynthesis are not exceptions. Photosynthesis takes carbon from the air and water from the soil to produce sugars and oxygen.


What photosynthesis waste product in formed in the light reactions?

OK well I dont know and I dont care >:)


What reaction does the sun help take place?

Multiple reactions, although photosynthesis is the most well know. The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, for example, can also be driven by energy from the sun.


Which of the reactants in photosynthesis produces oxygen during the reactions of photosynthesis?

That would be the water. Light form the sun is used to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Oxygen, as we know, is released as a waste product that we use. Hydrogen is then carried to another series of reactions to create energy for the plant.


Which phase in photosynthesis requires chlorophyll?

The reaction that requires chlorophyll is called photosynthesis. The chlorophyll is used as a catalyst to convert carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates and excess oxygen, using sunlight. Without photosynthesis, life as we know it would not exist, because there would be no oxygen in the atmosphere.


Phase of photosynthesis where light energy is converted to chemical in form of ATP?

The phases where light energy is converted into ATP are called light reactions. I don't know if you want information on what happens then or not, though.


What are the 2 main reactions in photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis happens in two stages, also called reactions. The first stage is the light-dependent stage. In this stage light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted into chemical energy, and water is split to produce hydrogen. The unwanted oxygen from the water is released. The second stage is the light-independent stage. In this stage the chemical energy and the hydrogen from the first stage are used to convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrates, such as glucose. More details can be found on this site by searching for photosynthesis.

Does photosynthesis or cellular respiration only occur in plants?

i Know that photosynthesis only occurs in plants but i don't know about cellular respiration.


What is necessary for photosynthetic reactions to occur?

Carbon dioxide is one chemical that is needed in order for the metabolic reactions of photosynthesis to occur. The first stage of photosynthesis is a light reaction where energy from light is captured.


What are the processes of photosynthesis and transpiration?

The two main processes of Photosynthesis are Light Dependent and Light Independent (dark Reactions).
