Answer:

The simplified equation is as follows:

CO2 + H20 + light energy ---> glucose + O2

Comparing this simplified equation with the general equation of photosynthesis (CO2+ H2O + light energy → [CH2O] + O2), it can be concluded that the process of photosynthesis is a two-stage process, and that a combination of the reactions of the two processes gives the products of photosynthesis

Simplify the combined equation for photosynthesis by crossing out compounds that are both products and reactants. How does this equation compare to the general equation for photosynthesis (CO2+ H2O + light energy → [CH2O] + O2)?

Explanation:

Photosynthesis -the process by which plants use the energy of the sunlight to produce sugars- occurs in two stages: the light-dependent stage and the light-independent stage.

The light reactions occuring in the thylakoid membranes use the energy of sunlight to split water producing electrons which are transferred to NADP+ to produce NADPH and ATP from ADP and Pi

Light energy + H20  + ADP + Pi + NADP+ ---> 02 + NADPH + ATP

In the light-independent reactions occuring in the stroma, energy from ATP and NADPH in addition with carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is used  to produce glucose

NADPH + ATP + CO2 ---> glucose + ADP + NADP+

The combined equation of the two reactions is given below:

CO2 + H20 + light energy + ADP + ATP + NADPH + NADP+ + ---> glucose + 02 + ATP + NADPH +ADP + NADP+

The simplified equation is as follows:

CO2 + H20 + light energy ---> glucose + O2

Comparing this simplified equation with the general equation of photosynthesis (CO2+ H2O + light energy → [CH2O] + O2), it can be concluded that the process of photosynthesis is a two-stage process, and that a combination of the reactions of the two processes gives the products of photosynthesis
