What part of mitochondria does light reaction occur?
ElaineCabelafb8985
Mitochonndria are cell organells related to respiration. Light reaction, on the other hand, occurs during photosynthesis in the chloroplasts. Thus, any part of a mitochondrion is not responsible for light reactions.

Which part of photosynthesis can occur even when there is no light?
That is the dark reaction. It needs no light
Which part of the chloroplst does the light dependent reaction occur?
It occurs in thylakoids of Granna .
Does the energy stored in mitochondria make ATP in light reactions?
The term "light reaction" does not really apply when speaking of mitochondria. Mitochondria are like furnaces. You put the wood in, light it, and it gives off heat. You put glucose into the mitochondria and the membranes facilitate the breakdown of that glucose to release the energy that was trapped in the carbon bonds. That energy is now stored as ATP. Mitochondria do not store energy, just as a furnace doesn't store heat. They process the fuel (glucose) to release energy--day or night. "Light reaction" is more aptly applied to photosynthesis, which does depend on light energy for the first part of the reaction.
Which part of chloroplast to the dark reaction occur?
Dark reaction occurs in stroma
In what part of a chloroplast do dark reaction occur?
stroma

Where in the cell does the Krebs cycle part of cellular respiration occur?
it occurs in the matrix of the mitochondria.
Which part of chloroplast to the dark reaction occur?
Dark reaction occurs in stroma
What is light reaction and dark reaction?
Photosynthesis can be divided into two part: light reaction is the first stage of photosynthesis, occurring only in the presence of light, during which energy captured from light drives the production of ATP. dark reaction is the second stage of photosynthesis, not requiring light to occur, and during which energy released from ATP drives the production of organic molecules from carbon dioxide.
In what part of a chloroplast do dark reaction occur?
stroma
Where does photosythsis occur?
Photosynthesis occurs in the choloroplast, a organelle in the cell. More specifically: photosynthesis is divided into several steps. The first step/steps is the light reaction, or light-independent reaction. This happens to absorb the photons, and with it, the energy, from the sun. This part occurs in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast. The second part is the Calvin cycle, or the dark/ light-dependent reaction. This part takes the results of the first reaction, and change that energy that was captured into glucose. This occurs in the grana of the choloroplast.
What part of a cell could represented by a light bulb?
I think it would be the mitochondria.
Do photosynthesis occur in mitochondria?
nope. only in the chloroplast. in that there are two cycles, the light reaction and the Calvin cycle Light reaction light is taken in the plant water from the roots is broken down oxygen is released from the plant leaves ATP and NADPH (a high energy electron carrier) is produced (carries hydrogen) Calvin Cycle CO2 is taken in ATP is used as energy NADPH is used to lower ativiation energy (after the calvin cycle, NADPH become NADP+)
What occurs in light dependent?
A.T.P. and N.A.D.H are formed during light reaction.
