"Photosynthesis is a process in which the light energy obtained from the sunlight is used in the manufacture of oxygen and sugar molecules in the presence of carbon dioxide and water."

  • The process of photosynthesis involves two things i.e. the light reaction that takes place in the thylakoid membrane that goes to the production of NADPH and ATP. Other than this an important reaction involves the light-independent reaction also known as the ‘Calvin cycle’ that happens in the stroma of the chloroplasts which is the final step that produces sugar. The NADP and ATP molecules play a major role in light-independent reactions to fix the carbon dioxide to synthesise glucose molecules.
  • Glucose produced in the photosynthetic process is converted into chemical energy. Oxygen is another major product of the process which is released into the environment through stomata. Organic molecules found in most organisms are because of the result of photosynthesis which is the basic source of carbon compounds.
  • In the organelles of plants, photosynthesis happens in the chloroplasts. Usually, chloroplasts are there in all green plants and a special pigment known as the chlorophyll is found inside the organelle. These pigments have specialised structures called photosystems that are involved in the process of photosynthesis.
