Document Summary

The image shows chlorophyll, and photosynthetic organisms contain chlorophyll. There is little photosynthetic life in the oceans where it is warm. It can be defined as a light dependent reaction to convert co2 or inorganic carbon into an organic form. It is metabolic process where light energy is used to drive the conversion of co2 into sugar. There is no usable energy in inorganic carbon because it contains oxygen. Usable energy means you can extract electrons from those molecules. Sugar has high energy content because it contains a lot of c-h bonds. Neither carbon nor hydrogen is very electronegative, so it is easy to pull those electrons away and use them. Photosynthesis overall is an endergonic process and the energy come from light. Photosynthesis is basically is the opposite of respiration, therefore respiration is exergonic. Whether you are talking about respiration or photosynthesis, you are talking about redox reaction. The electrons move from one molecule to another.
