It is the light reaction. It requires lights to happen.

Where in a cell does photosynthesis occur?
Photosynthesis occurs only in plant cells. This is because only plant cells (unlike animal cells) contain chloroplasts. These chloroplasts are the site of photosynthesis in the plant cell, and contain the necessary pigment of chlorophyll which is required for photosynthesis to take place. The photosynthesis equation is as follows: CO2 + H2O (in the presence of light and Chlorophyll) = energy + O2
Ingenhousz found that plants produce oxygen bubbles only in the presence of what?
Only in the presence of light
What part of the chlorophyll molecule absorbs light?
Chlorophyll does not aborbs light itself, it only absorbs light photonic energy to trigger chemical reaction.
How did a plant without the presence of chlorophyll make its own food?
There is no such thing as a plant without chlorophyll, unless you can tell me straight that you have seen a colorless plant that you can see right through. Dead plants lose their chlorophyll, though.
What types of light does chlorophyll absorb?
Chlorophyll a and b absorb light very well in the blue-violet and red regions of the visible spectrum. Green light is reflected, which is why plants are green.
Why is chlorophyll a catalyst?
Chlorophyll is NOT really a catalyst. The presence of chlorophyll in the absence of light does not catalyze photosynthesis. Chlorophyll plays a part in photosynthesis, it captures light energy.

What is chlorophyll's importance in photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll helps to the plants absorb the light (reflects only the green light, all the other light it absorbs).

Cellular repiration occurs only in the presence of?
Oxygen
What are the special qualities of chlorophyll a?
Chlorophyll a can absorb solar energy, but only a few in the excited state of chlorophyll a can convert light energy into electricity.
Why is only the outer layer of a stem green?
Green comes from chlorophyll the photosensitive chemical in photosynthesis. It is only useful when there is light to exploit. There is no light inside the stem of the plant so there is no chlorophyll there.
Why is chlorophyll only found in plants?
chlorophyll converts light into energy in the process of photosynthesis. As animals or bacteria etc. do not photosynthesize, they don't need chlorophyll.
The crystallization of mineral salts in bone occurs only in the presence of?
Collagen
Is it true or false that only portions of visible light can be taken up by chlorophyll?
True, obviously the green part of the spectrum is not used which is why chlorophyll looks green when illuminated with white light.
How did a plant without the presence of chlorophyll make its own food?
There is no such thing as a plant without chlorophyll, unless you can tell me straight that you have seen a colorless plant that you can see right through. Dead plants lose their chlorophyll, though.
