Photons are elementary particles that are the quantum of electromagnetic radiation, including light. They are massless and travel at the speed of light, playing a crucial role in energy transfer during the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. These particles are absorbed by chlorophyll in plant cells, initiating a series of reactions that convert light energy into chemical energy.
congrats on reading the definition of photons. now let's actually learn it.
