What are products of the light independent reactions?

The main purpose of the light independent reaction is to produce glucose.


What are the starting molecules for light independent reactions?

ATP and NADPH


What is the relationship between the light dependent reaction and Calvin cycle?

The two reactions of photosynthesis are connected by two substances: ATP and NADPH. These are produced by the light dependent reaction and are used by the light independent reaction. ATP is produced from ADP and Pi (phosphate): ADP + Pi ---> ATP This reaction requires energy to make it work, and this energy comes from light absorbed in the light dependent reaction. NADPH is produced from NADP+ and H: NADP+ + H ---> NADPH This reaction also requires energy, which is obtained from light in the light dependent reaction. The ATP and the NADPH are used in the light dependent reaction to provide energy and a source of H to convert CO2 to CH2O (carbohydrate). The products of the reactions (ADP, Pi, NADP+) are recycled in the light dependent reaction to produce more ATP and NADPH.

Are the starting products of photosynthesis?

You might mean the reactants, the reactants for photosynthesis are 6CO2 + 6H2O+ light energy. The products from these reactants are Oxygen, Glucose. Photosynthesis: 6CO2+6H2O+light energy--->6O2+C6H12O6.


Where do the reactants for the light independent reaction come from?

RuBP (Ribulose Biphosphate) is a prexisting molecule in the stroma of the chloroplast. ATP is yielded through Chemiosmosis and NADPH is the final product of the light dependant reactions.

Why is light not a reactants?

reactants are material particles having a specific mass which is converted into products and their mass is conserved while light has no specific mass and not present in products as a component. the light may catalysed a reaction.

In a combustion reaction between butane and oxygen which contains more energy reactants catalyst products or products and reactants contain the same amount of energy?

Every combustion process is exothermic (the release of heat and light) so the products have low energy as compare to reactants which are in this case Butane and oxygen.

What is products in chemical reaction?

what substance you get when you're done with the chemical change.ex: match+lighter=reactants. when you mix those a certain way, you get a light!
