Thylakoid membrane on the chloroplast.
Light dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplasts in photosynthetic organisms. The products (ATP and NADPH) are used in the second stage of photosynthesis, which is called the Calvin Cycle. (Oxygen is given off as a "waste" product--lucky for us!)
The two main reactions in photosynthesis are the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin Cycle. Light-dependent reactions take place in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, where light energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. The Calvin Cycle, which is also known as the light-independent reactions, takes place in the stroma of chloroplasts and involves the production of glucose from carbon dioxide using ATP and NADPH produced in the light-dependent reactions.

Mitochondria
The thylakoid membrane is where the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place in plant cells. This membrane contains chlorophyll and other pigments that capture light energy and convert it into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. It also houses the protein complexes involved in the electron transport chain, which generates the energy needed to produce glucose during photosynthesis.

The light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplasts. This is where sunlight is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH.
Photosynthesis takes place in the thylakoid membrane and the stroma of a chloroplast. The thylakoid membrane is where the light-dependent reactions occur, while the stroma is where the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle) take place.
The light reactions occur in the thylakoid space, which can also be called the granum.

Thylakoids are membrane-bound compartments inside chloroplasts where the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place.
The photosystems in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis are located in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast. Photosystem I and Photosystem II are embedded in the thylakoid membrane and are responsible for capturing and converting light energy into chemical energy.
light-dependent
1. Calvin cycle takes place in the stroma and light- dependent reactions take place in the granum, also light is not required for all the reactions of Calvin cycle.2. Calvin cycle assimilates CO2 to form organic compounds whereas in light reactions photolysis of water leads the formation of energy rich inorganic compounds.
In which two parts of a chloroplast does photosynthesis take place?
