calvin cycle
Glucose is the sugar produced during photosynthesis. It is a simple carbohydrate that serves as the primary source of energy for the plant and is also used as a building block for more complex carbohydrates like starch.
The light absorbed by chlorophyll initiates the light reactions of photosynthesis. Chlorophyll molecules in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts absorb light energy and convert it into chemical energy, which is used to drive the conversion of water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and carbohydrates during photosynthesis.
NADP+ is reduced in many different places. In animals cells, for example, during the breakdown of one glucose molecule two are reduced during glycolysis, two are reduced during the oxidation of pyruvate, and 6 are created during the Krebs cycle.
Photosynthesis generates ATP during the light-dependent reactions (photophosphorylation) and NADPH during the light-dependent reactions (photolysis of water and reduction of NADP+ to NADPH).
Water molecule is split during the light reactions of photosynthesis to release oxygen.
sugar
Carbon dioxide is consumed by reactions in the stroma during photosynthesis. This gas is converted into carbohydrates with the help of light energy and enzymes.
The energy used to synthesize carbohydrates during the Calvin cycle comes from ATP and NADPH, which are produced during the light reactions of photosynthesis. These molecules carry the necessary energy to drive the chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrates like glucose.
Oxygen is produced during the light reactions of photosynthesis when water molecules are split by the photosystem II complex. This process releases oxygen as a byproduct.
The energy used in the Calvin cycle production of carbohydrates comes from ATP and NADPH, which are produced during the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. These molecules provide the necessary energy and reducing power for the conversion of carbon dioxide into carbohydrates in the Calvin cycle.

Carbohydrates
During photosynthesis, the electron acceptor is typically NADP+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate). NADP+ accepts electrons and protons to form NADPH, which carries the high-energy electrons produced during the light reactions of photosynthesis to the Calvin cycle for the synthesis of carbohydrates.
We call it carbohydrates. It is the glucose.
NADP+ is reduced in many different places. In animals cells, for example, during the breakdown of one glucose molecule two are reduced during glycolysis, two are reduced during the oxidation of pyruvate, and 6 are created during the Krebs cycle.
