Explanation:
The light-dependent reactions take place in the thylakoid membranes in the granum (stack of thylakoids), within the chloroplast. The two stages of photosynthesis: Photosynthesis takes place in two stages: light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle (light-independent reactions

Answer:
The light-independent or "dark" reactions occur in the chloroplast stroma
Explanation:
- Following the light reactions, the light-independent or "dark" reactions occur in the chloroplast stroma. During this process, also known as carbon fixation, energy from the light reactions' ATP and NADPH molecules drives a chemical pathway that uses carbon dioxide (from the atmosphere) to build a three-carbon sugar called glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P).
- Cells then use G₃P to synthesise a wide range of other sugars (including glucose) and organic molecules. Many of these interconversions take place outside the chloroplast, after G₃P is transported from the stroma.
- The byproducts of these reactions are then transported to other parts of the cell, including the mitochondria, where they are broken down to produce more energy carrier molecules to meet the metabolic demands.
