Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the main characteristic of the first stage of photosynthesis?
A
The production of hydrogen and energy
B
The production of hydrogen and glucose
C
The release of oxygen and carbon dioxide
D
The storage of glucose in the plant’s cells.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Stage one of photosynthesis is the light-dependent reaction, wherein the organism uses sunlight to make carrier molecules for energy. During this stage, sunlight interacts with chlorophyll, exciting its electrons to a higher energy state.

Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis occurs in two stages. During the first stage, the energy from sunlight is absorbed by the chloroplast. Water is used, and oxygen is produced during this part of the process. During the second stage, carbon dioxide is used, and glucose is produced.

Detailed explanation-3: -The first stage of photosynthesis is called the light reactions. During this stage, light is absorbed and transformed to chemical energy in the bonds of NADPH and ATP.

Detailed explanation-4: -The characteristics of Photosynthesis include: It is a process that occurs solely in plants that have the green pigment chlorophyll used to prepare food. The requirements include Sunlight, water, and oxygen, where two processes occur one light-dependent and another which is light-independent.

Detailed explanation-5: -Light energy is converted to chemical energy during the first stage of photosynthesis, which involves a series of chemical reactions known as the light-dependent reactions.
