Photosynthesis occurs in two stages: a light-dependent stage that occurs in the thylakoid membrane and a light-independent stage that occurs in the stroma.
Light-dependent reactions require light. The reactions use that light that is captured by chlorophyll. The light is converted into chemical energy.
The chemical energy is stored in molecules such as ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate).
At the end of the light-dependent reactions, light energy and water are converted into ATP and NADPH.
During the light-independent reactions, the plant takes carbon dioxide and the ATP and NADPH that it made in the light-dependent reactions, and uses them to make glucose.
Photosynthesis occurs in two stages: a light-dependent stage that occurs in the thylakoid membrane and a light-independent stage that occurs in the stroma.
During the light-dependent reactions, light is converted into chemical energy.
The chemical energy is stored in molecules called ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate).
At the end of the light-dependent reactions, light energy and water are converted into ATP, NADPH, and oxygen.
During the light-independent reactions, the plant takes ATP, NADPH, carbon dioxide, and water that it made in the light-dependent reactions, and uses them to make glucose.
Photosynthesis occurs in two stages: a light-dependent stage that occurs in the thylakoid membrane and a light-independent stage that occurs in the stroma.
During the light-dependent reactions, light is converted into chemical energy. The light energy is captured by chlorophyll and other pigments in the thylakoid membranes, and then converted into ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate), which are energy-rich molecules.
The chemical energy is stored in ATP and NADPH. These molecules carry energy and will be used in the light-independent reactions, also known as the Calvin cycle, to convert carbon dioxide into glucose.
At the end of the light-dependent reactions, light energy and water have been converted into ATP, NADPH, and oxygen. Oxygen is a byproduct of photosynthesis and is released into the atmosphere.
During the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle), the plant takes carbon dioxide and the energy-rich molecules (ATP and NADPH) that were produced in the light-dependent reactions, and uses them to make glucose. The glucose is then stored as chemical energy in the plant.
