Chapter 28, Problem 54P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reactant is reduced to product in most of the biosynthetic processes. This is to explain whether it is also true for the overall reaction of photosynthesis or not.
Concept introduction:
During photosynthesis, green plants take up carbon dioxide and water in the presence of chlorophyll to produce glucose and oxygen. The function of chlorophyll pigment is to trap energy in the form of ATP from the sunlight.
