DARK REACTION - In stroma -synthesis - C12
The end product of the dark reactions is glucose.
The end product of the light reactions is ATP and NADPH, which are then used in the dark reactions to produce glucose through the Calvin cycle.
The main overall product of the dark reactions of photosynthesis is glucose. These reactions, also known as the Calvin cycle, use the energy from ATP and NADPH produced during the light reactions to convert carbon dioxide into glucose through a series of chemical reactions.
Plants respire durning a dark cycle. They release carbon dioxide.
The inputs of the Dark Reaction are NADPH, ATP, and CO2. The NADPH and ATP, which were produced in the Light Reactions, fix the carbon into a carbohydrate such as glucose. Enzymes are also needed for the Dark Reaction to take place. One such enzyme is Rubisco, which interacts with CO2 and RuBP in the first step of the Dark Reaction.
The product of the light reactions of photosynthesis is ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate). These molecules provide the energy necessary for the Calvin cycle (dark reactions) to produce glucose.
The dark reactions that occur in plants are dependent on the light reactions because the dark reactions need ATP and NADPH. ATP and NADPH are energy molecules that dark reactions need to do their job.
The light reactions provide energy carriers for the dark reactions.

Differences: >light reactions occur in the thykaloid membranes, but dark occur in stroma >light reactions are light dependent, or they need light to take place, whereas dark reactions don't > dark reactions use the products of the light reactions >light reactions are the first step of photosynthesis and dark reactions are the second step Similarities: >both in photosynthesis Thats really the only similarity!!! hope this helps :)
The Calvin-Benson Cycle is dark reaction pathway of photosynthesis. The reactants to Calvin-Benson are carbon dioxide (CO2), ATP, electrons, and NADPH. These intermediary reactions yield a final product of CH2O. In turn the synthesis of 5CH2O results in a glucose (C6H12O6) molecule.
The light reactions provide energy carriers for the dark reactions.
