  1. Plants release oxygen in the light because they are photosynthesizing, which requires the input of carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight. The reaction is:
6CO2 + 6H20 + Light = C6H12O6 + 6O2

Essentially, the carbon atom is removed from carbon dioxide molecules and joined with water molecules to produce 6(CH20) or C6H12O6, which is glucose. This releases the O2 molecule, which is the stable state of oxygen gas, from carbon dioxide.

2. This is wrong. When respiring, all living organisms breathe out carbon dioxide, unless they're DEAD! They give out CO2 to respire, to answer the question.

What happens to carbon dioxide and oxygen in the dark?

In the dark, plants undergo cellular respiration like animals, using oxygen to break down sugars and produce energy. This process releases carbon dioxide as a byproduct. Without light for photosynthesis, the plant cannot take in carbon dioxide and produce oxygen.


Does both light reactions and the Calvin cycle produce three-carbon sugars?

No, the light reactions produce high-energy molecules (ATP and NADPH) while the Calvin cycle, which is part of the light-independent reactions, uses these molecules to produce three-carbon sugars through carbon fixation.


How do plants absorbed carbon?

Plant does not absorb carbon monoxide. It is a gas which does not required in photosynthesis or respiration. (Biology: Light reaction and dark reaction)


What happened to the plant kept in light and plant kept in dark in the third week?

The plant kept in light likely continued to grow through photosynthesis by converting light energy into chemical energy for growth. The plant kept in the dark likely didn't grow much, as it depends on light for photosynthesis to produce energy for growth.


What is the relationship between the light and dark reactions in photosynthesis?

The light reactions in photosynthesis capture sunlight to produce energy in the form of ATP and NADPH, which are then used in the dark reactions to convert carbon dioxide into glucose. In other words, the light reactions provide the energy needed for the dark reactions to occur and produce sugar.


What are the reactants of the Dark Reaction?

Carbon, ATP and NADPH


Does dark reaction of photosynthesis produce oxygen and ATP?

No, the dark reactions of photosynthesis (Calvin Cycle) do not directly produce oxygen or ATP. Instead, they use ATP and NADPH produced during the light-dependent reactions to convert carbon dioxide into glucose.


Do plant cells produce ATP during photosynthesis?

yesYes,ATP is produced in the light reaction. These are utilized in the dark reaction


CAN AmarYLlis grow albino in the dark?

No, amaryllis plants require light to grow and photosynthesize. Without light, they will not be able to produce chlorophyll, which is necessary for their green color and growth. If grown in the dark, the plant will not survive.


What are the reactants of dark reactions of photosynthesis?

The reactants of the dark reactions (Calvin Cycle) of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide (CO2), ATP (adenosine triphosphate), and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate). These molecules are used by the plant to produce glucose, the primary energy source for the plant.


Do snails produce or consume carbon dioxide when in the light?

Snails produce CO2 all the time even if they are alive. It doesn't matter if there is light or not. Animals do not consume CO2 at all but produce it as a product.


Where does a plant get carbon dioxide that it needs for the dark reaction from?

A plant obtains carbon dioxide for the dark reaction, also known as the Calvin cycle, primarily from the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide enters the plant through small openings called stomata, which are found on the leaves. Once inside the leaf, the carbon dioxide is used in the dark reactions to synthesize glucose and other organic compounds. This process occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells, utilizing the energy stored during the light-dependent reactions.
