Answer:

Photosynthesis is a complex process associated with the production of food in the form of sugar.

The process begins with the conversion of the sunlight energy to chemical energy through light-dependent reaction which helps the release of the NADPH and ATP. The light-dependent reaction takes place in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast.

The intermediate produced is utilized in the light-independent reaction also known as the Calvin cycle which forms the glucose molecule. The glucose molecule is transported to the plant where it undergoes respiration and produces energy.

<span>Light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll, a green substance found in chloroplasts in some plant cells and algae. Absorbed light energy is used to convert carbon dioxide (from the air) and water (from the soil) into a sugar called glucose. Oxygen is released as a by-product. - BBC</span>

Yakvenalex [24]

The greatest error in the experimental design is that the temperature of both bins were taken at different times from each other. The students should have measured them at the same time to lessen the randomness of the variables. A way to "fix" this is by changing taking into account the extra time between bin A was and bin B was measured for bin B's calculations.
