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.

Agribusiness basically refers to large companies, concentrating on earning of revenue from sale of agricultural produces. this businesses, as their base is agriculture, are dependent on climatic factors. the major concern of agribusiness includes the input sector, production sector , the output sector and marketing. the agriculture only calls for the input and production sector. this made agribusiness to be the basis for rural economic development.

The initial reactions in photosynthesis are know as the?
The initial reactions in photosynthesis are known as the light-dependent reactions. These reactions occur in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast and involve the absorption of light energy to drive the conversion of water into oxygen, ATP, and NADPH.
What does NADPH add to the Calvin benson cycle?
NADPH is used in the Calvin-Benson cycle to provide reducing power needed for the synthesis of carbohydrates. It helps to reduce 3-phosphoglycerate into glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, a key intermediate in the cycle. This reduction reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.
What other elements compounds and mixtures are involved in photosynthesis?
In addition to carbon dioxide and water, other elements involved in photosynthesis include oxygen and hydrogen. Compounds like chlorophyll and enzymes are also critical in the process. Additionally, mixtures such as sunlight and nutrients in the soil play important roles in supporting photosynthesis.
What is the reason plants must use respiration in addition to photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis produces sugars, but these sugars must be broken down. Otherwise, the plant cannot use the energy stored in sugars.
What captures solar energy and uses photosynthesis to produce sugars?
Plants do this in the chloroplasts in their green leaves.
Do green apples carryout photosynthesis?
No, chlorophyll is not actually in the fruit itself. The tree that the apple is attached to does go though photosynthesis, and has chlorophyll. The tree then gives all the necessary nutrients to the fruit, so the apple does not need to, or even possess the ability to go through photosynthesis.
What is true about light dependent reaction?
photosynthesis begins when pigments in photosystem i absorb light.
C4 plants
How would Earth's atmosphere change if plants stop carrying out photosynthesis?
Plants utilize carbon dioxide (CO2) to perform photosynthesis. This is fortunate, because all living things produce CO2 as a byproduct of respiration and oxidation. If the plants didn't absorb it, it would build up in the atmosphere to dangerous levels, and life as we know would cease to exist.
What is the equation for photosynthesis and the raw materials and products?
H20+CO2---------->Glucose(C6H1206)+O2
What organisms do photosynthesis and cellular respiration occur to?
Respiration take place in all.Photosynthesis take place in auto phototrophs
What is the end product and waste product of photosynthesis?
Oxygen, that is why plants and trees are so important. The plants use up the carbon dioxide that humans and animals exhale when we breathe, and they produce oxygen which we need to sustain life.
What is the oxygen formed during photosynthesis called?
Oxygen formed during photosynthesis is the gas O2.
Flow of energy converted with photosynthesis?
Fusion energy in the Sun's core produces light that leaves the Sun as electromagnetic radiation. This is trapped by the chloroplasts in plant cells and the energy is used to break chemical bonds and make new chemical bonds. Sugars are made and the sugars store the Sun's energy as chemical energy.
Which plant part is the place where reproduction takes place?
Reproduction in plants take place in flowers or mega- & microsprophylls.
How do plants produce food from photosynthesis?
Plants get their energy by mixing CO2 and water together using the heat of the sun. Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts. Photosynthesis is a process and this process can be described in the following equation:
Carbon dioxide + Water + Sunlight => Glucose (sugar) + Oxygen
This is the balanced equation of photosynthesis, just in case:
12(CO2) + 12(H2O) => 2(C6H12O6) + 6(O2)
Which structures alows the gaseous reactants and products of photosynthesis to move in and out?
stoma
What is the relationship between light intensity and photosynthetic rate?
The relationship between light intensity and photosynthetic rate is that if the intensity of the light is high then the rate of photosynthesis will increase. However the rate of photosynthesis will only increase to an extent after intensity of light reaches a certain point photosynthesis rate will stay still.
Does photosynthesis produces carbon dioxide gas?
No, the process is to take in carbon dioxide with water and sunlight to make sugars; the by-product is oxygen.
