chemical reaction
which stages would be considered a light reaction?
what is waters roles in the light reaction of photosynthesis
Light dependent reactions produce ATP and NADPH from energy captured from light. Therefore without light it cannot proceed. Light independent reactions fix carbon dioxide into glucose using the ATP and NADPH produced in the light dependent reactions. So light independent reactions can occur without light as long as CO2, ATP and NADPH is present.
Photosynthesis consists of two stages: a series of light-dependent reactions that are temperature independent and a series of temperature-dependent reactions that are light independent. The rate of the first series, called the light reaction, can be increased by increasing light intensity (within certain limits) but not by increasing temperature. In the second series, called the dark reaction, the rate can be increased by increasing temperature (within certain limits) but not by increasing light intensity.
Light allows photosynthesis to occur. Therefore more light=faster reaction.
which stages would be considered a light reaction?
they are both stages in photosynthesis and both require enzymes and occur in the chloroplast :)

why light reaction of photosynthesis is essential before the dark reaction can procced?

There are only two parts of photosynthesis, light reaction and light independent reaction (Calvin Cycle).
The two reactions which occur during photosynthesis are light reaction and dark reaction. Light reaction takes place only in the presence of light. Dark reaction can occur with or without light.
light reaction and dark reaction
Light allows photosynthesis to occur. Therefore more light=faster reaction.
The 2 stages are light-dependent stage and the light-independent stage. In the light-dependent stage, photolysis of water 12H20 --------> 6O2 + 24H Light energy is converted to Chemical energy In the light-independent stage, enzyme controlled reaction 6CO2 + 24H -----------------> C6H12O6 + 6H20
Water is the molecule that is split during the light reaction of photosynthesis when releasing oxygen.
