fijación de carbono fotosintética
Scope note: Síntesis, por parte de los organismos, de compuestos químicos orgánicos, especialmente CARBOHIDRATOS, a partir del DIÓXIDO DE CARBONO, usando la ENERGÍA lumínica en lugar de la ENERGÍA procedente de la OXIDACIÓN de PRODUCTOS QUÍMICOS. La fotosíntesis consta de dos fases diferentes: la fase luminosa y la fase oscura. En las PLANTAS superiores, las ALGAS VERDES y las CIANOBACTERIAS el NADPH y el ATP que se generan por las reacciones de la fase luminosa posibilitan las reacciones de la fase oscura, que dan lugar a la fijación de DIÓXIDO DE CARBONO .

Scope note: The synthesis by organisms of organic chemical compounds, especially carbohydrates, from carbon dioxide using energy obtained from light rather than from the oxidation of chemical compounds. Photosynthesis comprises two separate processes: the light reactions and the dark reactions. In higher plants; GREEN ALGAE; and CYANOBACTERIA; NADPH and ATP formed by the light reactions drive the dark reactions which result in the fixation of carbon dioxide. (from Oxford Dictionary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2001)
