Question

In what way are the light-dependent and light-independent reactions of photosynthesis similar?

A) Both require chemical energy to proceed.
B) Both occur in the chloroplast.
C) Both produce oxygen as a byproduct.
D) Both involve carbon fixation.

Answer 1

Answer:

B) Both occur in the chloroplast

Explanation:

Both the dark and light reactions occur in the chloroplast. The light reaction occurs in the thylakoid membrane, while the dark reaction takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast.

Answer 2

Answer:

Reactions of the Calvin cycle

Reactions of the Calvin cycleThe Calvin cycle reactions can be divided into three main stages: carbon fixation, reduction, and regeneration of the starting molecule. ... In the second stage, six ATP and six NADPH are used to convert the six 3-PGA molecules into six molecules of a three-carbon sugar (G3P).
