Question

31, which statement best describes the relationship between the light dependent and light independent (carbon fixation) reactions?

A.The light-independent reactions produce the chemical energy (glucose) to power the light-dependent reactions?

B.The light-dependent reactions produce the chemical energy (ATP AND NADPH) to power the light-independent reactions?

C. The light-dependent reactions produce glucose that is used in light-independent reactions.

D.The light dependent and light independent reaction are not chemically dependent on each other in any way.

Explanation / Answer

b)The light-dependent reactions produce the chemical energy (ATP AND NADPH) to power the light-independent reactions.

during photosynthesis the sunlight is captured and ATP and NADPH are produced in the light dependent process. Then this ATP and NADPH are used in the calvin cycle which is a light independent process.
