Q & A

Q1: What is photosynthesis?

Answer: The process by which green plants make their own food from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll is called photosynthesis.

During this process, oxygen gas is released. This process can be represented as:

    6CO2   + 12H2O        C6H12O6   +    6H2O +    6O2

The green plants convert the energy of sunlight into chemical energy by making glucose.
The extra glucose formed changes into starch which is stored in leaves.
The Oxygen released comes from the water.

Q2: Define Translocation.

Answer: Transportation of food from photosynthetic parts of the plant to the non-green part of the plant through phloem is known as translocation.


Q3: What are the important events occur during photosynthesis process?

Answer: The following events occur during this process:

  1. Absorption of light energy by chlorophyll.
  2. Conversion of light energy to chemical energy and splitting of water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. (Light Reaction)
  3. Reduction of carbon dioxide to carbohydrates. (Dark Reaction by Calvin Cycle)

Q4: Mention the conditions for photosynthesis. Also, mention the process involved in each of these steps.
