The products of light-dependent reactions are used in light-independent reactions.
ATP and NADPH
From light dependant reaction.
Light-independent reactions
Photosynthesis occurs in two main steps: light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle). In the light-dependent reactions, light energy is used to split water and produce ATP and NADPH. In the light-independent reactions, ATP and NADPH are used to convert carbon dioxide into glucose.
