Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is a process of formation of energy rich compound (carbohydrate) from CO2 and H2O in the presence of light and chlorophyll.

6CO2 + 6H2O—–>  C6H12O6 + 6O2

 

                           The mechanism of photosynthesis can be studied under two steps:-

  1. Light reaction
  2. Dark reaction
