Vedclass · Answer

(B) Photosynthesis is a process that occurs in chloroplasts ($A$ is correct).It is primarily a light-dependent process,but the term 'photosynthesis' encompasses both light and dark reactions (Calvin cycle). While light reactions require light,the dark reactions can occur in the absence of light,provided the products of the light reaction ($ATP$ and $NADPH$) are available. Therefore,stating it occurs 'only' during the daytime is scientifically inaccurate ($B$ is incorrect).Photosynthesis is a fundamental process found in both $C_3$ and $C_4$ plants ($C$ and $D$ are correct descriptions of photosynthetic pathways).

Which of the following statements is incorrect regarding photosynthesis?
