Light Independent Reaction in Photosynthesis: What, How, Why and Detailed Facts

Photosynthesis is said to be the method by which the plants make their own food by use of sun, water and the carbon dioxide.

There is a concerned place called as stroma and is the place where light independent reaction in photosynthesis takes place. It has many enzymes that can work along with ATP and also NADPH to have carbon fixed.

Most of the life forms depend on the process of photosynthesis. This method is carried out by the plants, few type of bacteria, algae that help in capturing the energy from the rays to make oxygen and then store the chemical energy in the form of glucose which is a sugar. Herbivores tend to get the energy by consuming plants and the carnivores have it by eating the herbivores.

At the time of this, plants tend to take in carbon dioxide and also water from the soil and air. While at the inside of cells of the plant, there is oxidation of water which means that the electrons are lost and also at the same time the carbon dioxide are said to reduce themselves and then it gains the electrons. Due to this, the water is converted to oxygen.
