What is the function of the light independent reaction of photosynthesis?
To provide ATP and NADPH to drive the next part of photosynthesis, the Calvin Cycle (AKA Dark Reaction, Light Independent Reaction). Light reactions also produce oxygen gas as a byproduct.
What two reactions occur in photosynthesis?
There are three carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight.
What are the two basic steps to photosynthesis?
The Light Dependent process and then the Light Independent process (known as the Calvin Cycle).
What are the two different reaction of photosynthesis and explain each reaction?
These two reactions are: 1. Light reaction or Hill Reaction- in which the photolysis of water takes place to form energy rich compounds like NADPH2 & ATP and O2 is liberated from water. 2. Dark reaction or Blackman reaction- in which the CO2 is assimilated to form carbohydrates by utilizing the energy from the compounds of Hill reaction. It can also be called photosynthesis in the light-dependent stage and light-independent stage (dark stage).
What is water roles in the light reaction of photosynthesis?

What are the reactants and products of a light dependent reaction and a light independent reaction?
The reactants of light-dependent reactions in photosynthesis are H20 (water), ADP, and NADP+.The products of light-dependent pathways of photosynthesis are Oxygen, ATP, and NADPH.The reactants of light-independent reactions are ATP, NADPH, and Carbon Dioxide.The main purpose of the light independent reaction is to produce glucose.
Water is the source of what product of photosynthesis during the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis?
# photosynthesis 2. Water is the source of hydrogenduring the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis. Water is split into hydrogen and oxygen. The oxygen is released into the atmosphere and the hydrogen is transferred to a carrier molecule called NADP, to produce NADPH. The NADPH is then used in the light independent reaction to reduce carbon dioxide to carbohydrate. See my answer to this question on WikiAnswers: What connects the light dependent reaction to the light independent reaction?

Where does the energy for the light independent reactions of photosynthesis come from?
splitting of water molecules

2 stages of photosynthesis?
The 2 stages are light-dependent stage and the light-independent stage. In the light-dependent stage, photolysis of water 12H20 --------> 6O2 + 24H Light energy is converted to Chemical energy In the light-independent stage, enzyme controlled reaction 6CO2 + 24H -----------------> C6H12O6 + 6H20

What does light dependent reaction need to proceed?
The light-dependent reaction can only occur in the light because light supplies the energy needed for the reaction. In this stage of photosynthesis, light energy is converted into chemical energy (ATP) and 'reducing power' (NADPH) which are then used in the light-independent reaction. Also in the light-dependent reaction, water is split to provide the hydrogen needed to make NADPH. The light-independent reaction can take place in the light andthe dark, i.e., it is independent of the light! However, it needs the products of the light-dependent reaction (ATP and NADPH), so it cannot continue indefinitely without it. In the light-independent reaction, the ATP and NADPH produced by the light-dependent reaction are used to convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrate, e.g., glucose. This happens in a series or reactions called the Calvin cycle. A link is provided.
