the first portion of photosynthesis is light dependent and begins when photons of light from the sun strike the pigments in the thylakoid membrane. the energy from the sunlight is transferred to electrons which enter an electron transport chain. after each step in the electron transport chain lost energy is used to make ATP from adp

What kind of energy is used in the process of photosynthesis?
The 'light reaction' portion of photosynthesis is driven by UV light from the sun.
Describe an experiment that would you to determine whether the deep purple portion of the leaf is photosynthesizing?
"Describe an experiment that would you to determine whether the deep purple portion of the leaf is photosynthesizing?"
During which stage of photosynthesis does carbon fixation take place?
During the Light Independent Stage or second stage of photosynthesis.
Describe three ways a plants leaf is adapted for photosynthesis?
sun water chese
Describe the two methods euglenophytes can use to obtain energy?
Through chloroplasts which allow them to carry on photosynthesis and through their eyespot which allows them to find sunlight to power photosynthesis
What portion of the ocean is photosynthesis confined to?
The sunlit portion
What is the synthesis portion of photosynthesis that takes place in th estroma?
Photosynthesis
What major portion does photosynthesis supply?
Carbohydrates
What portion of the plant does photosynthesis takes place?
Mostly the leaves
How would you describe the function of chloroplasts?
Photosynthesis
Describe how the above ground portion and the below ground portion of the ecosystem are two interrelated and interdependent communities?
Describe how the above ground portion and the below ground portion of the ecosystem acts as two interrelated, interdependent communities
Carbon enters the living portion of the carbon cycle through photosynthesis?
TRUE
Where in the plant does photosynthesis occur?
Most photosynthesis occurs in a portion of the leaf called the palisade mesophyll. Palisade cells contain chloroplasts, which convert the energy stored in photons to chemical energy through photosynthesis.
Second step in photosynthesis?
The second step in the Photosynthesis is the Calvin Cycle. It is also known as the Light-Independant Reactions or the Dark Reactions. :3

What is the second stage of photosynthesis?
Atp is one of them.
What is the second step in photosynthesis?
Calvin cycle.
