Tag Archives | Reduction of CO2 into Carbohydrates

In this article we will discuss about the photosynthetic cycle of reduction of Co2 into carbohydrates. The transformation of light energy into chemical energy results in the production of ATP and NADPH (see fig. 3-12). Our present knowledge of the metabolism of carbohydrates will enable us to study what is sometimes called the dark phase of photosynthesis, i.e. the series [...]
