What happens during the light reaction of photosynthesis?
1.Water molecules split apart 2.Carbon dioxide is combined with glucose
3.Water molecules combine to make food. 4. Air and water create energy for a plant
Answer:
The light reaction of photosynthesis comprised of the prime functions of water and air which combine together to form energy for the rest of the reaction.
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
The Light Reaction of Photosynthesis:
The light reaction of Photosynthesis is the first half of the complete reaction that combines with the second half to produce the resultant products i.e., glucose and Oxygen.
There are two stages of photosynthesis: The Light Reaction and the Calvin Cycle. In the light reaction; energy is absorbed from the sunlight by the chlorophyll pigments which is transferred to two molecules ATP and NADPH.
Since the whole process takes place in the sunlight which plays a crucial role in the reactions, it is named as the light reaction. The ultimate product of this stage is Oxygen which is further used in the second stage of the reaction i.e. the Calvin Cycle.
