6 0

Answer: d. divided into two major steps, light dependent reactions and light independent reactions

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a chemical process by which plants make their own food in the presence of sunlight by utilising carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) and produces oxygen (O2) and energy.

The process of photosynthesis is divided in to two stages:  light dependent reactions and light independent reactions.

In light-dependent reactions, the enrgy from the sunlight i sabsorbed by chlorophyll and converted into chemical energy in the form of electron carrier molecules such as NADPH and ATP.  Photosystems I and II harness light energy, both of which are present in chloroplastic thylakoid membranes.  

light-independent reactions ustilises the chemical energy produced in light-dependent reactions and form Carbohydrate molecules from carbon dioxide.

Hence, the correct option is d.

GaryK [48]
Estuaries, often reffered to as the nurseries of the sea provide feedind habitats for many aquatic animals and plants. Fish and shellfish commonly eaten in the U.S such as oyesters and Salmon complete almost half of their lifecycles in estuaries. Due to its shallow water,Pamlico estuary especially provides opportunities such as Fishing, crabbing and watersports as well.
We can be able to determine this concept by basing our facts on two concepts. Nutrient Influx, upon reaching the estuarian ecosystem, the nutrients in the presence of sunlight undergoes photosynthesis and produce phytoplanktons. Basically, where there is sunlight, we can assume there is a nutrient influx. Presence of Phytoplanktons will in turn help attract animals such as fish. Also, another contribution of nutrient influx is manure produced by the animals

Sewage treatment plans and fertilizer runoff. Auto emissions of nitrogen, fertilizers applied on golf courses and home gardens can contribute. Some plankton species may produce toxins that might cause these outbreaks
