Light dependent reactions produce ATP and NADPH from energy captured from light. Therefore without light it cannot proceed. Light independent reactions fix carbon dioxide into glucose using the ATP and NADPH produced in the light dependent reactions. So light independent reactions can occur without light as long as CO2, ATP and NADPH is present.
The light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis occur in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, while the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle) occur in the stroma of chloroplasts.
Photosynthesis consists of two stages: a series of light-dependent reactions that are temperature independent and a series of temperature-dependent reactions that are light independent. The rate of the first series, called the light reaction, can be increased by increasing light intensity (within certain limits) but not by increasing temperature. In the second series, called the dark reaction, the rate can be increased by increasing temperature (within certain limits) but not by increasing light intensity.
Photosynthesis is divided into two main stages: the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle). In the light-dependent reactions, which occur in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, sunlight is captured and used to produce ATP and NADPH. The light-independent reactions, occurring in the stroma, use the ATP and NADPH generated to convert carbon dioxide into glucose. Together, these stages enable plants to convert light energy into chemical energy.
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.
ATP and NADPH
The 2 stages are light-dependent stage and the light-independent stage. In the light-dependent stage, photolysis of water 12H20 --------> 6O2 + 24H Light energy is converted to Chemical energy In the light-independent stage, enzyme controlled reaction 6CO2 + 24H -----------------> C6H12O6 + 6H20
The two main stages of photosynthesis are the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions (Calvin Cycle). In the light-dependent reactions, light energy is used to split water molecules and produce ATP and NADPH. In the Calvin Cycle, ATP and NADPH are used to convert carbon dioxide into glucose.
Photosynthesis is performed in two stages:Light reactions (or light-dependent reactions): Energy from sunlight is required.Dark reactions (or light-independent reactions): No sunlight is required. However, energy formed by the light-dependent reactions is needed.
Light-Dependent and Light-Independent
Light Dependent and Light Independent :))
The two stages of photosynthesis are the light dependent and the light independent. During the light reactions, light is converted into energy by a process of transferring electrons to and from a special chemical called NADP. In the light independent stage, called the Calvin Cycle, which uses that energy to change carbon dioxide into sugars for the cell's use.
The light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis occur in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, while the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle) occur in the stroma of chloroplasts.

The light dependent and the light independent reactions.
There are two reactions. Those are light dependent and independent.
There is the light-dependent stage, where sunlight interacts with choloropyll to set up an electron-transport chain, then there is the chemical stage, where glucose molecules are synthesized from CO2 and H2O.
