What are the 2 main reactions in photosynthesis?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

The first main reaction in photosynthesis is that the plant using it creates food with sunlight. The second main reaction of photosynthesis is that the plant makes carbon dioxide(Co2).

Answer 3

1) Light-dependent reactions (capture energy from sunlight.) 2) Light-independent reactions (use energy from the light dependent reactions to make sugars.)

Answer 4

There are actually three reactions - water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide.

Answer 5

Two of the major reactions of photosynthesis are a high energy triose and phosphate. Other reactions include water and oxygen.

Answer 6

i know that the 2nd major type is the calvin cycle

Answer 7

2 main phases are light reaction and dark reaction .
