Chemistry - Biomolecules Question with Solution | TestHub

Synthesis of glucose molecule in photosynthesis involves following reaction:

$12{\text{H}}_2\text{O}+12\text{ NADP + 18 ADP }\stackrel{\text{Light reaction}}{⟶}6{\text{O}}_2+18\text{ ATP}+12\text{ NADPH}$

$6{\text{CO}}_2+12\text{ NADPH}+18\text{ ATP}\stackrel{\text{Dark reaction}}{⟶}{\text{C}}_6{\text{H}}_{12}{\text{O}}_6+12\text{ NADP}+18\text{ ADP}+6{\text{H}}_2\text{O}$

$6{\text{CO}}_2+6{\text{H}}_2\text{O}⟶{\text{C}}_6{\text{H}}_{12}{\text{O}}_6+6{\text{O}}_2$
