Give the events that occur during photosynthesis
Answers
Answer:
The three events that occur during the process of photosynthesis are : (1) Abosption of light energy by chlorophyll. (2) Conversion of light energy to chemical energy (in the form of ATP and NADPH) and splitting of water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen.

Fᴏʟʟᴏᴡɪɴɢ ᴀʀᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ᴋᴇʏ ᴇᴠᴇɴᴛs ᴛʜᴀᴛ ᴏᴄᴄᴜʀ ᴅᴜʀɪɴɢ ᴘʜᴏᴛᴏsʏɴᴛʜᴇsɪs :
▪ Absorption of solar energy by chlorophyll.
▪ Conversion of solar energy to chemical energy and splitting of water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen.
▪ Reduction of carbon dioxide to carbohydrates.
Although the above - mentioned steps are essential for photosynthesis, these necessarily do not take place in the same sequence in all plants. For example, desert plants take up carbon dioxide during the night when their stomata are open and reduce it during the day in the presence of solar energy.
