| (i) Absorption of light energy by chlorophyll. |
| (ii) Conversion of light energy to chemical energy and splitting of carbon dioxide into carbohydrates and oxygen. |
| (iii) Reduction of carbon dioxide to carbohydrates. |
| (iv) Conversion of chemical energy to radiant energy and splitting of water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. |
A) (i) and (ii) only
B) (ii) only
C) (ii) and (iii) only
D) (ii) and (iv) only
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
During photosynthesis, light energy is converted into chemical energy. The light absorbed by the chlorophyll results in photolysis of water i.e., splitting of water into protons \[({{H}^{+}})\] and oxygen \[({{O}_{2}})\]and evolution of electrons \[({{e}^{-}}).\]
