The splitting of water during photosynthesis is called?
Photolysis is the splitting of water during photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process which results in the conversion of light energy into chemical energy.
What is the name of the process of splitting a large molecule into smaller molecules by adding water?
Hydrolisis
How do you break a water molecule?
Electrolysis, which as the name implies, is the process of splitting something apart with electricity.
Distinguish between dissociation and association?
Dissociation in chemistry is the process of splitting of an ionic compound in water solution. Association is the inverse process.
How are water molecules split apart?
If you use pass an electrical current through water to split it into hydrogen and oxygen, it is called electrolysis. If you use a chemical reaction to split water, then it is often called oxidation or reduction depending on the process. The splitting of water itself doesn't have a name, only the processes that are used to do it.
What important process in plants requires water?
Water is required for the 'photolysis of water' which is the first stage of photosynthesis. Light enters the cell and strikes the water molecule splitting it into Hydrogen and Oxygen (from H2O).
Which process requires electrons that are obtained by the splitting of water A cyclic photophosphorylation B noncyclic photophosphorylation C Photorespiration?
The answer is A) Cyclic Photophosphorylation
What is fat splitting?
FROM MOHAN JHA[BSC -IC,MSC-IC] An improved fat splitting process which eliminates the induction period encountered during pressure splitting. A partial hydrolysis is conducted prior to pressure splitting by combining a lipase in the presence of water with the fat or oil to be hydrolyzed with added agitation. Pressure splitting of this partially split triglyceride eliminates or reduces the induction period.
The process of splitting water to release hydrogens and electrons occurs during the process a light dependent b light independent c carbon fixation d carbon photophosphorylation e glyc?
The process of splitting water to release hydrogen ion and electrons along with oxygen is called photolysis. Photolysis occurs during non-cyclic phase of photosynthesis. Photos means light and lysis means splitting. Thus it is evident from the name itself that photolysis is a light dependent step of photosynthesis.
Where does oxygen gas come from in photosynthesis?
The splitting of water by the process of photolysis in photosystem II. There the electrons and protons are used in the process of photosynthesis but oxygen gas is a byproduct that diffuses out of the stomata into the atmosphere.
Which protein complex in the electron transport chain after photosystem 2 produces ATP?
the water-splitting enzyme
What is produced directly from the splitting of water?
Splitting water results in oxygen and hydrogen. The water element is separated into two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
