Photosynthesis in higher plants involves the following processes:

This phenomenon occurs in the presence of light.
The pigment absorbs light and produces energy in the form of ATP.
The process involves- absorption of light, water splitting, the release of oxygen, and formation of ATP and NADPH.

This process occurs in the absence of light in the stroma of the chloroplasts. The following cycles are involved in the process:

1	Chlorophyll 'b'	p	Yellow orange
2	Carotenoids	q	Orange red
3	Chlorophyll 'a'	r	Yellow
4	Xanthophylls	s	Blue green
