<h2>photosynthesis </h2>

Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and certain bacteria to harness energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy. Here, we describe the general principles of photosynthesis and highlight how scientists are studying this natural process to help develop clean fuels and sources of renewable energy. 

<h3>Types of photosynthesis:</h3>

There are two types of photosynthetic processes: oxygenic photosynthesis and anoxygenic photosynthesis. The general principles of anoxygenic and oxygenic photosynthesis are very similar, but oxygenic photosynthesis is the most common and is seen in plants, algae and cyanobacteria. 

During oxygenic photosynthesis, light energy transfers electrons from water (H2O) to carbon dioxide (CO2), to produce carbohydrates. In this transfer, the CO2 is "reduced," or receives electrons, and the water becomes "oxidized," or loses electrons. Ultimately, oxygen is produced along with carbohydrates.

What that determines if a cell is eukaryotic. *
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
To determine whether a cell is a eukaryotic or
prokaryotic cell, one can observe certain features.
If the cell in the question possesses a well-defined
or definite nucleus and have membrane-bound
organelles such as mitochondria, chloroplasts,
Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, the cell is
eukaryotic. If the cell has nucleoid or indefinite
nucleus and without membrane-bound cell
organelles, the cell is prokaryotic. If ribosomes in
a cell are the 80S (S=Svedberg units) type, the cell
is eukaryotic and if ribosomes are 70S type then it
is prokaryotic.
