No, glucose is not a direct result of the light reactions of photosynthesis. The light reactions, which occur in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. Glucose is produced during the Calvin cycle, which is the second stage of photosynthesis that occurs in the stroma of chloroplasts, using the ATP and NADPH generated from the light reactions to fix carbon dioxide.
A molecule of glucose is formed as it stores some of the energy captured from sunlight
No
Glucose is made during the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle) of photosynthesis, where carbon dioxide is converted into glucose using ATP and NADPH produced during the light-dependent reactions.
Glucose
The end product of the light reactions is ATP and NADPH, which are then used in the dark reactions to produce glucose through the Calvin cycle.

Glucose
The main result of the reactions in the Calvin cycle is the conversion of carbon dioxide into glucose, which is a form of stored energy. This process requires ATP and NADPH produced during the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis.
