Photosynthesis is one of the processes that plants use to obtain energy in a usable form. It is an example, and a good one at that, of a chemical reaction simply because it involves multiple chemical, certain conditions and definite products. The reaction for photosynthesis is thus:

6CO2 + 6H2O --(Light)--> C6H12O6 + 6O2

This process is useful as it enables plants to turn light energy, usually given from the sun, into chemical energy in the form of glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2), which can be used for the plant's biochemical activities.

Which phrase best describes the electron transport chain in photosynthesis?

Yes. Photosynthesis involves the transfer of electrons. Photosynthesis causes a chemical change. All chemical changes involve either the transfer of electrons or a change in the configuration of electrons. No other way exists to make a chemical change.

How does chemical change happens in photosynthesis?

it happens when •A physical change is reversible, a chemical change is not.•the freezing of water would be a physical change because it can be reversed, whereas the burning of wood is a chemical change - you can't.
