during the light-independent phase of photosynthesis, the plant secretes or wastes some energy by putting it into effect. this is done through the Calvin cycle and glycolysis. the light-independent phase requires glucose which is made during the light-dependent phase. Hope this helps!

Does during dark phase does it need chlorophyll?

No, chlorophyll is not needed during the dark phase of photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is a pigment that absorbs light energy to drive the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, which only occur during the light phase. In the dark phase (or light-independent phase), known as the Calvin cycle, chemical reactions use ATP and NADPH produced during the light phase to convert carbon dioxide into glucose.


Why is it necessary to call dark phase of photosynthesis as light independent phase?

there is a reason. it does not need light.


Is Calvin cycle light dependent or light independent?

The Calvin cycle is a light-independent process because it does not directly require light energy to function. It can occur in the absence of light, utilizing the products of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide into glucose.


Light independent phase?

It is called the dark combining.


What happens during dark reaction phase and light reaction phase in photosynthesis?

In the light reaction phase of photosynthesis, light energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. These energy carriers are then used in the dark reaction phase, also known as the Calvin Cycle, to convert carbon dioxide into glucose. The dark reaction does not require direct light and takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast.


What light-independent reactions do plants produce?

The light-independent reactions occur in the storm of the chloroplast. The light- independent reactions are "independent" from light so they can happen else where. The light-dependent reactions happen in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast where the light is absorbed, and the reactions depend on the light.


What phase happens during mitosis?

Prophase.


What is the light dependent phase?

The "light dependent phase" or "light-dependent reaction" is a phase in photosynthesis in which light is absorbed by the photosystems (PS I and PS II) in the thylakoid membranes and electrons flow through the electron transport chains.


What happens s?

Photosynthesis occurs in two steps which are?

Photosynthesis occurs in two main steps: light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle). In the light-dependent reactions, light energy is used to split water and produce ATP and NADPH. In the light-independent reactions, ATP and NADPH are used to convert carbon dioxide into glucose.
