Explanation: A little late, but oxygen is created in the light-dependent reaction as a result of the hydrogen molecule being used in H20, leaving oxygen behind as a product.
Oxygen is produced in the lightdependent stage of photosynthesis.
STAGE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS:
Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants obtain their food using energy from sunlight.
Green plants make use of carbon dioxide and water to produce oxygen (waste product) and glucose.
Photosynthesis occurs in two stages namely: lightdependent and independent stage.
The lightdependent stage takes place strictly in the presence of sunlight. It occurs in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast.
In the thylakoid membrane, water molecule is broken down by light photons in a process called photolysis. Via this reaction, oxygen gas is released as a product.
Therefore, oxygen is produced in the light dependent stage of photosynthesis.
