Solution
(c) activate chlorophyll.
Light is also used to signal the activation of the Calvin-Benson cycle (which is inhibited in the dark to conserve energy in the chloroplast) and to regulate many other developmental processes that affect photosynthesis. The synthesis of chlorophyll itself involves a light-catalyzed reaction. In motile plants (such as swimming green algae), light is also used for navigation.
