PLEASE HELP ME! Is a product of the first stage of photosynthesis. a. ATP b. Glucose c. Carbon dioxide d. Water
I think the answer is C. Carbon Dioxide I just need to know if I am right?
Step 1: Photosystems The light-dependent portion of photosynthesis is carried out by two consecutive photosystems in that thylakoid membrane of the chloroplasts. Then the photosystems are driven by the excited chlorophyll molecules. To begin it , the chlorophyll molecule in photosystem II is excited by sunlight and the energy produced helps to break down a water molecule . When the electrons prepare to come to their rest state, they go through an oxidative phosphorylation process and produces an ATP molecule. As the electrons are coming to a resting state, they are excited again in photosystem I and raised to a even higher energy state. The excited electrons are then used to produce NADP+ + H+. The highly energetic NADPH molecule is then fed into the Calvin Cycle to conduct carbon fixation.
