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.

How is paper re-cycled?
paper is recycled through photosynthesis
Is the energy used in photosynthesis and cellular respiration recycled?
yes
Are atoms used in photosynthesis and cellular respiration recycled?
Yes
What is one component in photosynthesis that is not recycled?
energy
How is NADPH and ATP recycled throughout photosynthesis?
because stuff happens
What is one component in the photosynthesis that is not recycled and must be constantly available?
energy
What is the one component in photosynthesis that is not recycled and must constantly available?
energy
What is the one component in photosynthesis that is not recycled and must be constantly available?
energy
What are four substances are recycled during photosynthesis and respiration?
Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, water, and ADP/ATP are all recycled during photosynthesis and respiration. Energy is not recycled so there must be a continuous supply of energy to maintain the cycle.
Photosynthesis produces what?
Photosynthesis produces glucose (C6H12O6) which is required by organisms for respiration, it also gives off bi-products of O2 and water, the oxygen is released into the atmosphere or recycled by the plant in its own respiration reactions.
What happens to the ADP formed from the ATP?
It is recycled by added a phosphate group to it to make ATP again.
