Photosynthesis #1
What is the process in which plants make their own food using sunlight?
photosynthesis
True or False: Nearly all living things obtain energy either directly or indirectly from the sunlight captured during photosynthesis.
True
Which stage of photosynthesis occurs in the thylakoids of the chloroplasts and only takes place when sunlight is available?
Light-Dependent Reaction
