Photosynthesis would not occur because plants need sunlight in order to live. Sunlight is converted into the chemical energy that plants can use for growing, reproduction, etc. Without light, plants can't gain enough energy.

Does the Calvin cycle require light to function?

No, the Calvin cycle does not require light to function. It is the second stage of photosynthesis and can occur in the absence of light.


Can photosynthesis occur without light?

No, photosynthesis cannot occur without light. Light is a necessary component for the process of photosynthesis to take place in plants.


How will light affect photosynthesis?

Light allows photosynthesis to occur. Therefore more light=faster reaction.


What process cannot occur in the dark treatment for photosynthesis?

In the dark treatment for photosynthesis, the process of light-dependent reactions cannot occur. These reactions, which take place in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, require light energy to generate ATP and NADPH. Without light, these energy carriers cannot be produced, halting the subsequent light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle) that rely on them to synthesize glucose. Therefore, overall photosynthesis cannot proceed effectively in the absence of light.


At what color of light does photosynthesis occur best?

Photosynthesis occurs best in blue and red light.


Is light necessary for photosynthesis to occur?

Yup


Does photosynthesis occur in light energy?

Yes


Why chlorophyll acts as a catalyst in photosynthesis?

Chlorophyll is NOT really a catalyst. The presence of chlorophyll in the absence of light does not catalyze photosynthesis. Chlorophyll plays a part in photosynthesis, it captures light energy.


Can photosynthesis occur with artificial light sources?

Yes, photosynthesis can occur with artificial light sources, such as grow lights, as long as the light provides the necessary wavelengths for the process to take place.


Does photosynthesis require water to occur?

Yes, photosynthesis requires water to occur. Water is a crucial component in the process of photosynthesis, as it is used in the light-dependent reactions to help convert light energy into chemical energy.


Can photosynthesis occur in the dark?

No, photosynthesis cannot occur in the dark because it requires light as an essential component for the process to take place.


Where does light dependent occur in the chloroplast?

Light- independent reactions of photosynthesis occur in the stroma of the chloroplasts of a cell.
