Yes. Although the primary function of photosynthesis isn't to create ATP, photophosphorylation does create some ATP molecules which the plants can use in addition to those made in the mitochondria.

What two types of reactions occur during photosynthesis?

The two reactions which occur during photosynthesis are light reaction and dark reaction. Light reaction takes place only in the presence of light. Dark reaction can occur with or without light.


Along with plants and algae which organisms can photosynthesis occur?

Photosynthesis can also occur in certain types of bacteria, such as cyanobacteria. These organisms are capable of converting sunlight into energy through the process of photosynthesis, similar to plants and algae.


When does photosynthesis happen night or day?

Most types of photosynthesis (C3 & C4) occur only during the day, however plants that use CAM photosynthesis open their stomata during the night to take in the gases essential for photosynthesis withoug losing the water in the cells. They then use the CO2 to produce glucose throughout the day.


What are the different types of clots that can occur during a period?

During a period, different types of clots that can occur include small clots, medium-sized clots, and large clots. These clots are typically made up of blood and tissue from the lining of the uterus.


What types of transformation happens during photosynihis?

During photosynthesis, light energy is transformed into chemical energy in the form of glucose. Carbon dioxide from the air is converted into glucose, and water is split to release oxygen as a byproduct. These chemical transformations are facilitated by enzymes and occur in the chloroplasts of plant cells.

What are the different types of phosphorylation and where do they occur?

Phosphorylation primarily occurs in two forms: substrate-level phosphorylation and oxidative phosphorylation. Substrate-level phosphorylation occurs in the cytoplasm during glycolysis and in the mitochondria during the citric acid cycle, where ATP is produced directly from a substrate. Oxidative phosphorylation takes place in the inner mitochondrial membrane, involving the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis, where ATP is generated indirectly through the flow of protons across the membrane. Additionally, there is protein phosphorylation, which is a regulatory mechanism occurring in various cellular locations, including the cytoplasm and nucleus, where proteins are modified by the addition of phosphate groups, often impacting their activity and function.

What must a plant have for photosynthesis to occur?

Important plant organelle called plastid (chloroplast, chromoplast, etc.) are needed for photosynthesis to occur. These organelles stores various types of pigments, such as chloroplast and carotenoids which take in light and begin photosynthesis.

What are the different types of spotting that can occur during pregnancy?

During pregnancy, spotting can occur due to implantation bleeding, cervical changes, or complications like miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy. It is important to consult a healthcare provider if spotting is experienced during pregnancy.
