The reactions of photosynthesis make up a biochemical pathway.
Explain how the biochemical pathway of photosynthesis recycles many of its own reactions and identify the recycled reactants.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Light reaction use light to synthesize ATP and `NADPH_(2)`. The calvin cycle uses these reactants to produce sugar from `CO_(2)` molrecule.
This cycle then produce `NAP+ADP+Pi` which is used in light reaction with `H_(2)O` molecules to produce ATP and `NADPH_(2)` again.
