NADPH is produced during the light reaction of photosynthesis. During the light reaction, solar energy energizes electrons that move down an (ETC) electron transport chain. As they move down this chain, energy is released and captured for the production of ATP molecules and some are also taken up by NADP which becomes NADPH.

If you are looking for the biological location in plants, that would be within the thylakoid.

Which high-energy molecule and electron carrier are produced by the light reaction of photosynthesis?

NADPH and ATP are produced by the light reactions. The ATP is a high energy molecule produced by photophosphorylation while the NADPH is produced at the end of the electron transport chain.


What are the two molecules produced in light reaction?

Oxygen is produced as a by-product while energy carriers, NADPH and ATP, are produced for the next step in the process, the Calvin cycle.


ATP and what other molecule are produced in produced in the second stage of photosynthesis?

NADPH is the other molecule produced in the second stage of photosynthesis, known as the light-dependent reactions. Both ATP and NADPH are essential for the production of sugars in the Calvin cycle, which is the third stage of photosynthesis.

Are nadph and ATP produced by the Calvin cycle?

Yes, they carry energy between the light reactions and the Calvin cycle. ADP is phosphorylated into ATP at the ATP synthase while NADP is reduced by the electrons in the transport chain (it then becomes NADPH).
