In this article we will discuss about the mechanism of photosynthesis in algae and leaves. Photosynthesis in Alage: Photosynthesis in Algae and Liverworts: Unicellular algae are aquatic and hence have abundant water and light available as raw materials. The third raw material CO2 is soluble in water and forms bicarbonate and carbonate. The solubility of CO2 in water is low [...]
In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Meaning of Calvin Cycle 2. Features of Calvin Cycle 3. Enzymes. Meaning of Calvin Cycle: Like the photosynthetic reactions which are driven by the light energy the reactions which joint hydrogen and CO2 to produce carbohydrate also require energy and the main source of this energy is the assimilatory power (ATP + [...]
