Write an equation for light dependent decomposition reaction and mention one use of it. |
|
Answer» Answer: The light-dependent REACTIONS can be summarized as follows: 12 H2O + 12 NADP+ + 18 ADP + 18 Pi + light and chlorophyll YIELDS 6 O2 + 12 NADPH + 18 ATP. The products of the light-dependent reactions, ATP and NADPH, have lifespans in the range of MILLIONTHS of seconds, whereas the products of the light-independent reactions (carbohydrates and other forms of reduced carbon) can survive for hundreds of millions of years. |
