Hey mate....
Here's your answer......
Light reactions need light to produce organic energy molecules (ATP and NADPH). They are initiated by colored pigments, mainly green colored chlorophylls.
Dark reactions make use of these organic energy molecules (ATP and NADPH). This reaction cycle is also called Calvin Benison Cycle, and it occurs in the stroma.
Hope this will be helpful to you mate......

Answer:
Light Reaction: The light reaction is a light-dependent process which includes a series of events such as light absorption, hydrolysis, the release of oxygen, formation of ATP and NADPH.
The light reaction of photosynthesis initiates only when it is supplied with light energy.
The photosystem is the arrangement of pigments including chlorophyll within thylakoids.
There are two photosystems in plants:
Photosystem I (PS-I)
Photosystem II (PS-II)
Photosystem I absorbs light at a wavelength of 700 nm, whereas Photosystem II absorbs light at a wavelength of 680 nm.
Dark Reaction: Dark reaction is also called carbon-fixing reaction. It is a light-independent process in which sugar molecules are formed from the carbon dioxide and water molecules.
The dark reaction occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast where they utilize the products of the light reaction.
Plants capture the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through stomata and proceed to the Calvin cycle.
In the Calvin cycle, the ATP and NADPH formed during light reaction drives the reaction and convert 6 molecules of carbon dioxide into one sugar molecule i.e. glucose.
