The light dependent reaction is a set of biochemical reactions in photosynthesis that require light energy that is captured by light-absorbing pigments. Its three products are oxygen, ATP and NADPH.

What are the 3 products of the light-dependent reactions?

The three products of the light-dependent reactions are oxygen (O2), ATP (adenosine triphosphate), and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate).


What two reactions occur in photosynthesis?

There are three carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight.


The light indepednt reactions of photosyntesis are also known as the?

The light-independent reactions of photosynthesis are also known as the Calvin cycle. This process occurs in the stroma of chloroplasts and uses ATP and NADPH produced during the light-dependent reactions to convert carbon dioxide into glucose. The Calvin cycle involves three main stages: carbon fixation, reduction, and regeneration of ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP).


Name 3 chemical products of the light reactions which 2 get passed on to the Calvin cycle and which one leaves the leaf?

The three chemical products of the light reactions are ATP, NADPH, and oxygen. ATP and NADPH are passed on to the Calvin cycle to be used in the conversion of carbon dioxide into sugars, while oxygen is released as a byproduct of photosynthesis.


What is the Site for carbohydrate production during light independent reaction?

The light-independent reactions of photosynthesis are chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and other compounds into glucose. These reactions occur in the stroma, the fluid-filled area of a chloroplast outside of the thylakoid membranes. These reactions take the light-dependent reactions and perform further chemical processes on them. There are three phases to the light-independent reactions, collectively called the Calvin cycle: carbon fixation, reduction reactions, and ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) regeneration.

What are the products of photosystem 1 and photosystem 2?

With the light dependent reactions the outputs (products) are oxygen, ATP, and NADPH, which carries the electrons. The oxygen is taken out and put into the environment when the NADPH (which has electrons) continues with ATP to the Calvin Cycle. Depending on how you look at it I would say that the ATP and NADPH are the most important products from the cell internally. However, we need oxygen to breathe. All three are important.


What are the three parts of photosynthesis?

The three main parts of photosynthesis are light-dependent reactions, Calvin cycle (light-independent reactions), and electron transport chain. In the light-dependent reactions, light energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. The Calvin cycle then uses ATP and NADPH to convert CO2 into glucose, while the electron transport chain helps in the production of ATP.


What are the 2 main reactions in photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis happens in two stages, also called reactions. The first stage is the light-dependent stage. In this stage light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted into chemical energy, and water is split to produce hydrogen. The unwanted oxygen from the water is released. The second stage is the light-independent stage. In this stage the chemical energy and the hydrogen from the first stage are used to convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrates, such as glucose. More details can be found on this site by searching for photosynthesis.

What are the three end products of the oxidation-reduction reactions involved in metabolism?

Its all oxidation for animals, and its CO2, H2O, & heat.


Is ATP produced in both photosynthesis and respiration?

Yes and No. There are two parts of photosynthesis, the light reactions and Calvin cycle. The light reactions produce ATP and NADPH which the Calvin reactions then use to produce sugars. So yes in respration 32-38 ATP are produced. And yes ATP is made by the light rxns in photosynthesis but is not a final product like the ATP in respiration


Does both light reactions and the Calvin cycle produce three-carbon sugars?

No, the light reactions produce high-energy molecules (ATP and NADPH) while the Calvin cycle, which is part of the light-independent reactions, uses these molecules to produce three-carbon sugars through carbon fixation.


What the three environmental factors that affect photosynthesis?

The three environmental factors that affect photosynthesis are light intensity, carbon dioxide levels, and temperature. Light intensity is necessary for the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is a key reactant in the Calvin Cycle, and temperature influences the rate of enzymatic reactions involved in photosynthesis.
