Dark reaction needs energy. this energy is supplied by light reaction
Both light reactions and dark reactions are crucial components of photosynthesis in plants. They occur in the chloroplasts, with light reactions taking place in the thylakoid membranes and dark reactions (Calvin cycle) occurring in the stroma. Both processes involve the conversion of energy; light reactions convert solar energy into chemical energy (ATP and NADPH), while dark reactions use that chemical energy to synthesize glucose from carbon dioxide. Additionally, both reactions are interconnected, as the products of light reactions fuel the dark reactions.
A dark reaction is done in the Calvin Cycle. Light is not needed at the time of the dark reaction but it also doesn't hinder the reaction if there is light at the time.So in short. Yes.
The light reactions of photosynthesis require oxygen as a raw material to produce ATP and NADPH. The dark reactions (Calvin cycle) of photosynthesis do not directly require oxygen as a raw material, but they use the ATP and NADPH produced in the light reactions. Both light and dark reactions are involved in photosynthesis, but only the light reactions require oxygen as a raw material.
No, the dark reactions of photosynthesis (Calvin cycle) can occur during the day as well. These reactions do not require light directly, but they depend on the products of the light reactions to proceed. The dark reactions convert CO2 into glucose using ATP and NADPH generated during the light reactions.
The inputs of the Dark Reaction are NADPH, ATP, and CO2. The NADPH and ATP, which were produced in the Light Reactions, fix the carbon into a carbohydrate such as glucose. Enzymes are also needed for the Dark Reaction to take place. One such enzyme is Rubisco, which interacts with CO2 and RuBP in the first step of the Dark Reaction.
The light reactions provide energy carriers for the dark reactions.
Differences: >light reactions occur in the thykaloid membranes, but dark occur in stroma >light reactions are light dependent, or they need light to take place, whereas dark reactions don't > dark reactions use the products of the light reactions >light reactions are the first step of photosynthesis and dark reactions are the second step Similarities: >both in photosynthesis Thats really the only similarity!!! hope this helps :)
The light reactions provide energy carriers for the dark reactions.
Photosynthesis requires two processes to occur: light reactions and dark reactions. During light reactions, light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll in the chloroplasts, which converts it into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. These energy-carrying molecules are then used in the dark reactions, where carbon dioxide is fixed and converted into glucose through the Calvin cycle.
The light reactions provide energy carriers for the dark reactions.
The dark reactions that occur in plants are dependent on the light reactions because the dark reactions need ATP and NADPH. ATP and NADPH are energy molecules that dark reactions need to do their job.
False. The light reactions of photosynthesis require light to convert solar energy into chemical energy, while the dark reactions (Calvin cycle) do not directly rely on light and can occur in both light and dark conditions. However, the dark reactions are indirectly dependent on the products of the light reactions.

These stages are called the light reactions and the dark reactions. The light reactions take place in the presence of of light. The dark reactions do not require direct light, however dark reactions in most plants occur during the day.

Explain why plants are able to continue the dark reactions when they are not able to use the light reactions?
