Photosynthesis consists of light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions. These light reactions occur within the chloroplast thylakoids, where the aforementioned chlorophyll pigments are found.

What starts the light reactions of photosynthesis?
light strikes the chloroplast.
Do chloroplast and mitochondria convert chemical energy?
Chloroplast convert light energy. Mitochondria convert chemical energy itself
Is carbon dioxide taken into the chloroplast during light dependent reactions?
No, carbon dioxide is not taken into the chloroplast during the light-dependent reactions. The light-dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast and involve the conversion of light energy into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. Carbon dioxide is actually taken in during the light-independent reactions, also known as the Calvin cycle or dark reactions, which occur in the stroma of the chloroplast.
What is a series of photosynthetic reactions in which carbon dioxide is fixed and reduced in chloroplast?
light-dependant reactions
Which type of chloroplast is specialized for light-dependent reactions and for light-independent reactions?
chloroplasts containing the pigments. chlorophyl is the major pigment.
What are light independent and dependent reactions?
Light dependent reactions are reactions the capture light energy and convert it into chemical energy(ATP). It occur in the chloroplast of plant cells Light independent reactions are reactions capture energy and use it to produce food . It does not need sunlight
What starts the light reactions of photosynthesis?
light strikes the chloroplast.
What absorbs energy in light reactions?
chloroplast
Are the light-independent reactions in plants fueled by chloroplast?
no

How do stomata and chloroplast play vital roles in photosynthetic activities of plants?
The light reactions in photosynthesis occur in the grana and the dark reactions take place in the stroma of the chloroplast without chloroplast , the dark reactions can't occurSONRY_26
What light-independent reactions do plants produce?
The light-independent reactions occur in the storm of the chloroplast. The light- independent reactions are "independent" from light so they can happen else where. The light-dependent reactions happen in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast where the light is absorbed, and the reactions depend on the light.

light-dependant reactions
Which type of chloroplast is specialized for light-dependent reactions and for light-independent reactions?
chloroplasts containing the pigments. chlorophyl is the major pigment.
A place where light reactions occur?
The place where light reactions occurs are the grana. These are composed of thylakoid sacs that are stacked and embedded in the chloroplast.
How does light and dark reactions takes place?
The light dependent reaction occurs in the chloroplast. In the light dependent reaction, chlorophyll pigments absorb solar energy. This energy is then converted into a chemical form (not glucose). The water molecule is split into oxygen and hydrogen molecules. The dark reaction or the carbon fixation period occurs in the fluid matrix or stroma of chloroplast. The hydrogen product from the first reaction is combined with the carbon dioxide molecules to makes sugars. This results in the C3 or C4 cycle.
