As photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts, O2 is produced from _____ via a series of reactions associated with _____. View Available Hint(s) As photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts, O2 is produced from _____ via a series of reactions associated with _____. H2O … photosystem I CO2 … Calvin cycle CO2 … photosystem II H2O … photosystem II

Answer 1

H₂O, Photosystem II

Step-by-step explanation:

• Photosynthesis is the process that enables autotrophs such as green plants and algae to generate food using water, carbon dioxide and energy from the sun.
• It occurs in two phases, that is, the light-dependent phase and the light-independent phase.
• During photosystem II energy from the sun is used to break-down water molecules to yield oxygen and hydrogen ions. Oxygen is released away to the atmosphere while hydrogen ions are used in the next phase to generate ATP molecules.
