Photosynthesis Photosynthesis Autotrophs (Plants, algae, many bacteria) make organic compounds by photosynthesis. Chloroplast are the sites of photosynthesis in plants. Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy to chemical energy that is stored through the synthesis of sugars. Plants trap the sun’s energy and build carbohydrates (sugar), called glucose that store energy. How is photosynthesis divided? Light reactions Light-independent reactions / Calvin Cycle/ Dark cycle The light-dependent reaction This reaction happens in the thylakoid membrane of the chloropl
