Virtually all the energy available for life in the earth's biosphere-the zone in which life can exist-is made available through photosynthesis. Also according to Microsoft's Encarta 98, here is some information on how photosynthesis takes place: Photosynthesis consists of two stages: a series of light-dependent reactions that are temperature independent and a series of temperature-dependent reactions that are light independent.
