1. The reactant in photosynthesis is carbon dioxide (CO2).
The stage that uses carbon dioxide is called the Calvin cycle (also known as the dark reaction or the light-independent reaction).
2. The other reactant in photosynthesis is water (H2O).
The stage that uses water is called the light-dependent reaction (also known as the light reaction).
