The light reaction can accomplish three things. Firstly, photoexcitation, basically what occurs in this process is the electron of chlorophyll absorb specific wave lengths of light. Secondly, we have electron transport, which pumps hydrogen to create a gradient that powers the ATP synthesis. And lastly there is chemosmosis, which is the movement of protons through ATP synthase complex that drives the phosphorylation of ATP.

Light reactions are reactions which are initiated by light (also photoinduced reactions). Generally light energy is converted into chemical energy.

Which process involves ribulose bisphosphate?
photosynthesis. The light - independent reaction
Life energy processes and food production?
plants can make their own food by the process of photosynthesis photo means sun or light while synthesis means together or making food together the are to kinds of process in food reaction the dark and light reaction
Which process of photosynthesis can occur at night?
No, not unless the plant is exposed to light.
What is photosynthisis?
The process of photosynthesis is conveniently divided into two parts: the energy-fixing reaction (also called the light reaction) and the carbon-fixing reaction (also called the light-independent reaction, or the dark reaction).
Why are the reactions of the calvin cycle also called the light independent reaction?
The reactions of the Calvin cycle are also called the light independent reactions because they do not require light to take place. This is contrary to the light dependent process of photosynthesis.
What is the name of the process where the light is utilized to produce ATP?
Light reaction or Hill's reaction.
What is the the process of plant respiration?
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 .............
Does light reaction process produce nadph?
no
What are the two basic steps to photosynthesis?
The Light Dependent process and then the Light Independent process (known as the Calvin Cycle).
How is light energy process in the light reaction of photosynthesis?
through an electron transport chain
What is the Light- independent reaction?
In scientific terms the light-independent reaction related to the process of photosynthesis which involves the conversion and reaction of carbon dioxide and other compounds to form Glucose.
Does the process of photosynthesis take place at night too.?
light reaction is not happening. Dark reaction could be.
What process does adenosine triphosphate occur?
it occurs in light independent reaction!!!
Which process of photosynthesis uses water molecules in the thylakoids?
Light reaction .
Through which process is oxygen produced as a byproduct?
light-dependent reaction
Is absorbing light a chemical reaction?
Light absorption is a physical process; but the effects of the absorption may be chemical.
The electrons essential to the oxygen production process of the light reaction are taken from?
NADP+
