Back

The products of photosynthesis are oxygen and glucose.

Front

What is the site of photosynthesis in plant cells?

Back

The site of photosynthesis in plant cells is the chloroplast.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight, which is essential for the process of photosynthesis.

Front

What is the overall equation for photosynthesis?

Back

The overall equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Front

What is the importance of photosynthesis for life on Earth?

Back

Photosynthesis is crucial for life on Earth as it produces oxygen and organic compounds that serve as food for living organisms.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

The two main stages of photosynthesis are the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle).

Front

How do light-dependent reactions contribute to photosynthesis?

Back

Light-dependent reactions convert solar energy into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH.
