Photosynthesis
This category is for questions about the chemical process in which autotrophic organisms use sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to make glucose, water and oxygen. This process is vital to life and is of great importance in biology.

How does emission spectrum looks like?
it is a set of lines corresponding to photon emission wavelengths.
Why are the products of ligh reaction of photosynthesis important?
They are used to produce sugar during the dark reaction
Cloro Plants are plants which produce chlorine onsite from common salt through electrolysis. ENCEE CHLOR is one such plant which generates chlorine in form of sodium hypo chlorite from common salt. The details can be had from www.enceechlor.com
What is the waste product for plants of photosynthesis?
The waste product for plants in photosynthesis is oxygen. During photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen. The oxygen is released into the atmosphere as a byproduct of the process.
Cellular respiration.
The products in cellular respiration are?
The balanced equation is
C₆Hâ‚â‚‚O₆ + 6Oâ‚‚ → 6COâ‚‚ + 6Hâ‚‚O + energyThe equation expressed in words would be as noted below...glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + energy.the products in cellular respiration in the chemical equation are :
carbon Dioxide , water and lots of heat in the form of energy.
What is he role of the Calvin cycle in photosynthesis?
The Calvin cycle is a metabolic pathway found in the stroma of the chloroplast in which carbon enters in the form of CO2 and leaves in the form of sugar.The cycle spends ATP as an energy source and consumes NADPH2 as reducing power for adding high energy electrons to make the sugar.
A by-product of photosynthesis which is necessary for respiration is?
Respiration is the reverse process of photosynthesis.
- Respiration:
C6H12O6 + H2O --> CO2 + H2O
- Photosynthesis:
CO2 + H2O --> C6H12O6 + H2O
Therefore, both products of photosynthesis are needed for respiration to occur.
Can photosynthesis turn plants green?
No, photosynthesis does not turn plants green. Photosynthesis uses light to create glucose and oxygen with carbon dioxide and water. Plants are green due to the chlorophyll found inside them. It is the chlorophyll that makes photosynthesis possible.
Which two groups of organisms contain members that carry out photosynthesis?
All life carries out cellular respiration to release energy. Only autotrophs carry out photosynthesis.*****The photosynthesis reaction is: chlorophyll6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy -------------> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Why is photosynthesis so important to animals?
one of the ways in which photsynthesis is vital to animals is that CO2 is recycled into oxygen. Without this recycling process there would be less oxygen for animals to undertake respiration.
What are the raw materials are used o make copper?
Not sure on this one...Either COPPER, or cake frosting
What is the function of G3P in photosynthesis?
In the Calvin Cycle [CC], carbon dioxide combines with RuBP which creates PGA. From the light dependent reactions in photosynthesis which occurs in the thylakoid, ATP and NADPH are produced. Those two products combine with the PGA to from PGAL. one of the 6 molcules of PGAL combine with a phosphate is used by the plants to create sugars, starch, etc. PGAL rearranges with 5-carbon phosphate and another phosphate is given to PGAL from the ATP light-dependent reaction product producing RuBP again. This restarts the cycle starting with carbon dioxide combining with the RuBP.
TO kill the plants cell by stopping all chemicals reaction and this allows any liquid to pass through the leaf
What is a photosynthesis example?
hmm well... ive been having to study that. so i kind of know what it is.
well theres plants, animals, algae, and bacteria that use and form photosynthesis.
i think that's what your looking for but im not sure. but to get more info i went to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis
it gave me my answers so i hop eit gives u yours
Why is a product of the Calvin cycle?
Water is not a product.It is a reactant in light reaction. Water is splitted to get electrons
Does photosynthesis have to happen in the dark?
No, photosynthesis requires light to occur. Plants use light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. This process takes place in the chloroplasts of plant cells during daylight hours.
Could photosynthesis decrease if you increase light-intensity?
Temperature affects the rate. Because of it is using enzymes.
What gas is given off in photosynthesis?
The gas given off by photosynthesis is oxygen, plants take in carbon dioxide and generate it into oxygen.
How does the first law of thermodynamics relate to photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Yes, it is. The first law says that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, just changed from one form to another. It is fairly obvious that the growth of a plant requires some input of energy to make it happen. Photosynthesis takes energy from the sun and converts it into energy used to make the plant grow as well as providing the energy that is stored in the chemical bonds of the plant.
What are the advantages of photosynthesis?
The process of photosynthesis has clear evolutionary advantages to plant and bacterial species. First they are able to passively fix their energy sources from abundant atmospheric carbon and the sun's light. This is in contrast to an animal that must gather and actively metabolize already fixed carbon (organic) sources and respire oxygen.
What part of the cactus does photosynthesis?
In a cactus the leaves have been reduced to spines, to reduce the surface area from which water can be lost and to deter animals from eating the plant.
As there are no leaves, photosynthesis must take place in the stem.
