When you combine two or more compounds, the various atoms may rearrange themselves to form new compounds etc
There are two main steps. They are dark reaction and light reaction.
The Light Dependent process and then the Light Independent process (known as the Calvin Cycle).
The main energy source for a reaction is typically provided by heat, light, or electricity.
Oxygen turns into six part carbon sugars
the respiriration is such a oxidative reductive process ... and during plant it have two complex more process consist of seriese of steps DARK reaction and Light reaction.................... dark reaction need no light wheather in day time or night time...................... some how the light reaction are done in the prescence of light ..........during the light reaction the formation of the light reaction is just one ATP Which is responsible for the production of dark reaction .............
The main steps of photosynthesis are light reactions and Calvin cycle. In the light reactions, light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted into chemical energy (ATP and NADPH). In the Calvin cycle, carbon dioxide is fixed and converted into glucose using the ATP and NADPH produced in the light reactions.
Photosynthesis occurs in the choloroplast, a organelle in the cell. More specifically: photosynthesis is divided into several steps. The first step/steps is the light reaction, or light-independent reaction. This happens to absorb the photons, and with it, the energy, from the sun. This part occurs in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast. The second part is the Calvin cycle, or the dark/ light-dependent reaction. This part takes the results of the first reaction, and change that energy that was captured into glucose. This occurs in the grana of the choloroplast.
The main purpose of the light independent reaction is to produce glucose.
The two major steps of the light reaction in photosynthesis are photon absorption and water oxidation. Photon absorption by chlorophyll molecules in the thylakoid membrane leads to the excitation of electrons, which triggers a chain of reactions culminating in the splitting of water molecules to release oxygen.
In photosynthesis, the reactants of the light-dependent reaction are water and light energy, which are used to produce oxygen, ATP, and NADPH. The products of the light-independent reaction (Calvin cycle) are ATP, NADPH, and carbon dioxide, which are used to produce glucose through a series of enzymatic reactions. The light-dependent reaction occurs in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, while the light-independent reaction takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast.
The light reaction produces ATP and NADPH, which are needed to fuel the dark reaction. The dark reaction (Calvin Cycle) uses the ATP and NADPH produced in the light reaction to fuel the conversion of carbon dioxide into glucose. In essence, the light reaction provides the energy source that drives the dark reaction.
The main thing that an enzyme does to catalyze a reaction, is to lower the energy of reaction.
