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.
sugars...carbon dioxide is turned into sugar by using ATP and NADPH to make a 6 carbon sugar
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.
Metabolism produces: amino acids(protein), carbohydrates(molecules that store energy), and lipids(fat)

Photosynthesis is the phenomenon of preparing starch by green plants in the presence of sunlight.
The plants produce energy with a function called photosynthesis. They use sunlight to make energy.
They produce oxygen gas during the light reactions.
They produce oxygen gas during the light reactions.
C4 Plants
The light reactions produce NADPH, where the Calvin Cycle produces NADP+
To produce energy for plants during the day time. ( courtesy Blackman high school )
Biochemical reactions
Yes it does. 3-phosphoglycerate is one of the early products formed during the Calvin Cycle. Which takes place in C3 reactions in plants.
They need it for photosynthesis. Photosynthesis consists of a chain of reactions, in which certain resources are needed and others are gained as a result. Plants need water, sunlight and carbon dioxide for the reaction. As a result plants produce sugar (= energy) and oxygen. So plants need water to be able to produce energy and to grow.
Explain why plants are able to continue the dark reactions when they are not able to use the light reactions?
No, only nuclear reactions can.
