Robin Hill discovered that the isolated chloroplasts from plants can release oxygen when they are illuminated by sunlight in the presence of a suitable electron acceptor. This showed:
I. |
oxygen \((O_2)\) is produced by a reaction that is separate from carbon dioxide \((CO_2)\) fixation. |
II. |
the reaction in which oxygen is released requires light. |
III. |
the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis is a result of a series of redox reactions. |
