The two major parts of Photosynthesis are the Calvin cycle and the light dependent reaction.
Organic compounds and inorganic compounds differ from each other. Three differences are :
1. Organic compound has carbon and hydrogen atoms while the inorganic compound has other atoms.
2. Organic compounds make the important biomolecules such as amino acids, proteins, DNA, RNA, etc whereas the inorganic compounds make the salts, acids, bases, etc.
3. Organic compounds have carbon hydrogen bonds or carbon carbon bonds. These types are not formed in inorganic compounds.
ATP consists of three phosphates, a base (adenine) and a sugar (ribose).
