Question

(a) List the steps of Photosynthesis. (b) Write down balanced chemical equation of photosynthesis. (c) Write any two functions of stomata​

Answer 1

a} step 1) CO2 AND H2O enters the leaf

step 2) light hits the pigment in the membrane of a thylakoid splitting the H20 into O2.

step 3) the electrons move down to enzymes.

step 4) sunlight hits the second pigment molecule allowing the enzymes to convert ADP to ATP and NADP+ gets converted to NADPH .

step 5) the ATP and NADPH is used by calvin cycle as a power source for converting carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into simple sugar glucose.

step 6) the calvin cycle converts 3CO2 molecules from the atmosphere to glucose.

b} 6CO2 + 6H20 - > C6H1206+ 602. generally, photosynthesis utilizes light vitality to change over carbon dioxide into starch.
