Answer:
Ans - 1 Photosynthesis begins with the light reactions. It is during these reactions that the energy from sunlight is absorbed by the pigment chlorophyll in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast.
Ans-2 The dark reactions of photosynthesis occur in the stroma of the chloroplast where they utilize the products of the light reaction. In the dark reaction, plants use carbon dioxide with ATP and NADPH from the light reactions to produce glucose.
Ans-3 The main factors affecting rate of photosynthesis are light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration and temperature.
Earth’s global temperature has changed greatly in the past hundreds of years. This is due to how much energy the planet is receiving from the sun and how it radiates back. Another cause is humans, due to deforestation, burning of fossil fuels, pollution, etc.
