Why do light reactions only occur during daylight?
Obviously, there is no sunlight energy for light dependent reactions to occur while calvin cycle AKA light independent phase does not require light as it uses energy in the form of ATP and the NADPH to form sugars
What is the difference between the light dependent and the dark reactions of the Calvin cycle?
What is the difference between the light dependent and the dark reactions of the calvin cycle?
Why can the Calvin cycle work at night but the photosystems connot?
Calvin cycle occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast and utilizes the NADPH and ATP produced in the process of light dependent reaction( or what we say the z- scheme reaction). If both are present then the Calvin cycle can occur even at night. because the Calvin cycle is light independent reaction. whereas the photo system as asked in the question actually refers to light dependent reaction( or what we say the z- scheme reaction) requires light.
Where does light dependent occur in the chloroplast?
Light- independent reactions of photosynthesis occur in the stroma of the chloroplasts of a cell.
The Calvin cycle performs the light dependent reactions?
false
Where in plants does photosynthesis happen?
It happens in the chloroplasts. The light-dependent reactions occur in the thylakoids. The calvin cycle (light-independent), occur in the stroma.
How does light play a role in photosynthesis?
Causes the photolysis of water and enables the calvin cycle to occur or the light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis.
What Will Most Likely Happen To a Plant That Does Not Does Not Receive Any Water?
The light-dependent reactions will not occur.
Why is possible for Calvin cycle to occur in the dark?
The Calvin cycle is called the dark cycle because it does not require light to proceed. Unlike light reactions, the Calvin cycle is a light-independent reaction, which means it can and will occur in the dark as well as the light.
Where in the chloroplast do the light dependent reactions take place?
They occur in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplasts in plant cells. They are light dependent in that they need the energy given off by the sun to "excite" the electrons in order to move down the electron transfer chain, which ultimately prepares them to be used by NADP+ to form NADPH to assist in the light independent cycle. (Calvin Benson Cycle)
What is the difference between the light dependent reactions and the light independent reactions?
light dependent reactions only occur in light this means thier reations increases with light intensity while light independent can occur in the dark
What are the two main stages for photosynthesis?
The light dependent stage and the light independent stage.
What is the differences between the light dependent reactions?
The Calvin cycle occurs at any time of the day, while the light dependent reactions require light. The calvin cycle produces glucose, while the light dependent reactions produce oxygen, ATP, and NADPH. The calvin cycle occurs because of the products of the light dependent reactions.
Why do light reactions only occur during daylight?

Where does photosinthisis take place?
Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts of plant cells. Specifically, the light-dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid membranes, while the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle) occur in the stroma of the chloroplast.
Where do the light dependent occur?
On the thylakoid membrane :)
