Photochemical and Biosynthetic Phase of Photosynthesis

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 excited; it means that it [...]

Photochemical and Biosynthetic Phase of Photosynthesis

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 molecules. Photochemical phase involves the [...]
