Introduction: photosynthesis is the process by which plants and some bacteria convert energy from the sun into food or chemical energy, This is how plants survive. This is the chemical reaction that takes place inside the leaf of a plant. This is what makes plants green and healthy.Photosynthesis has a vital role in agriculture. It allows crops to turn energy from the sun into a food source it
helps the growth of the crop. It provides nutrients for the crop.
Atmospheric gases: In photosynthesis, plants constantly absorb and release gases In a way that creates sugar for food. This process plays a critical role in maintaining a healthy, life promoting atmosphere. Photosynthesis helps regulate the quantities of …show more content…
the transfer of energy of these electrons are the cause for the formation of key energy carrying molecules along with the splitting of the water molecule to oxygen and hydrogen.
these molecules then go on to the second stage of photosynthesis the biochemical stage
the biochemical stage in this stage molecules react with h2 that came from the separating of h20 in the photochemical stage and co2 from the atmosphere enzymes are present to form the organic glucose molecules.
this stage doesnt require light as it uses the energy is already provided by the light in the light dependant reactions.
the rate of photosynthesis is very important for agriculture, if farmers increase the rate of photosynthesis this will increase the yield of the crop.
there are three main factors affecting the rate of photosynthesis these are light temperature and carbon dioxide.
when light gets brighter it increases the rate of photosynthesis.
the higher the temperature generally the greater the rate of photosynthesis but when temperatures reach over forthy degrees then the rate of photosynthesis slows
