The first step in photosynthesis is (a) conversion of light energy to chemical energy (b) reduction of carbondioxide (c) absorption of light energy by chlorophyll (d) formation of carbohydrates

Answer»

(c) Photosynthesis uses light energy and carbon dioxide to make triose phosphates (G3P). G3P is generally considered as the prime end-product of photosynthesis. It can be used as an immediate food nutrient, or combined and rearranged to form monosaccharide sugars, such as glucose, which can be transported to other cells, or packaged for storage as insoluble polysaccharides such as starch.
