Photosynthesis can be divided into two stagesâthe light dependent reaction and the light independent (or dark) reactions. During the light reactions, an electron is stripped from a water molecule freeing the oxygen and hydrogen atoms. The free oxygen atom combines with another free oxygen atom to produce oxygen gas which is then released.
Photosynthesis converts light energy into the chemical energy of sugars and other organic compounds. This process consists of a series of chemical reactions that require carbon dioxide (CO 2) and water (H 2 O) and store chemical energy in the form of sugar.Light energy from light drives the reactions.Oxygen (O 2) is a byproduct of photosynthesis and is released into the atmosphere.hotosynthesis transfers electrons from water to energy-poor CO 2 molecules, forming energy-rich sugar molecules. This electron transfer is an example of an oxidation-reduction process: the water is oxidized (loses electrons) and the CO 2 is reduced (gains electrons).
