Answer

Light reaction is also called the photochemical phase because it is light dependent reaction. The chlorophyll on exposure to light energy becomes activated by absorbing photons. The absorbed energy is used in splitting the water molecule (H2O) into its two components (Hydrogen and Oxygen) and releasing electrons.
