Description Photosynthesis is the process by which chlorophyll
containing plants convert solar energy into photochemical
energy. This energy stored in the forin of carbohydrates,
provides food for man and all other heterotropic organisms.
In addition, it provides the most vitally needed supply of
oxygen. It is becoming more and more apparent that,
evaluation of the true productive potential of water bodies
is necessary for utilization of this most fundamental
metabolic activity of green plants. The process of
photosynthesis is initiated when light is absorbed by an
antenna molecule within the photosynthetic membrane.
Although there are several pigments that are involved in
the light-gathering process, the fundamental importance
of chlorophyll (chi) or bacteriophyll (Bchl) is clear from
the fact that this molecule is common to all photosynthesis
antenna systems, as well as reaction centre.
