In this article we will discuss about the photochemical and biosynthetic phase of photosynthesis. Photochemical Phase of Photosynthesis: Radiant Energy: The pigment system of the chloroplast first absorbs light energy and then passes it on via intermediates to the products of photosynthesis. When a chlorophyll molecule absorbs a light quantum (i.e., photon) the molecule is […]

In this article we will discuss about the Photochemical and Biosynthetic Phase of Photosynthesis. Photochemical Phase (Light or Hill Reaction): It occurs inside the thylakoids, especially those of grana region. Photochemical step is dependent upon light. The function of this phase is to produce assimilatory power consisting of reduced coenzyme NADPH and energy rich ATP […]
