Question

role of photochemical reaction in biochemical process





​

Answer 1

Answer:

photochemical reaction is a chemical reaction triggered when light energy is absorbed by a substance's molecules. This response leads the molecules to experience a temporary excited state, thus altering their physical and chemical properties from the substance's initial molecule.

Answer 2

Role of photochemical reaction in the biochemical process:

• Photochemical reactions are chemical reactions that take place in the presence of light energy.
• Biochemical processes are chemical processes that take place in living organisms.
• There are some biochemical processes that need light energy and in such cases,  photochemical reactions are necessary for the successful completion of the biochemical process.
• Photosynthesis is one such biochemical process in which photochemical reactions take place.
• In photosynthesis, light energy is utilized along with carbon dioxide and water to produce sugar which is a carbohydrate biomolecule.
