6CO2 form glucose
The product of the light reactions of photosynthesis is ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate). These molecules provide the energy necessary for the Calvin cycle (dark reactions) to produce glucose.
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 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.
In the light reactions of photosynthesis, oxygen is released as a byproduct. Oxygen is not directly involved in the dark reactions (Calvin cycle), which utilize ATP and NADPH produced during the light reactions to convert carbon dioxide into sugars.
The product of the light reactions of photosynthesis is ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate). These molecules provide the energy necessary for the Calvin cycle (dark reactions) to produce glucose.
The product of the dark reaction in photosynthesis is glucose.
The end product of the dark reactions is glucose.
The Calvin-Benson Cycle is dark reaction pathway of photosynthesis. The reactants to Calvin-Benson are carbon dioxide (CO2), ATP, electrons, and NADPH. These intermediary reactions yield a final product of CH2O. In turn the synthesis of 5CH2O results in a glucose (C6H12O6) molecule.
The light reactions of photosynthesis produce ATP and NADPH, which are then used in the dark reactions (Calvin cycle) to convert carbon dioxide into sugars. The ATP and NADPH generated in the light reactions provide the energy and reducing power needed for the dark reactions to occur. In this way, the two sets of reactions are interdependent and work together to sustain the overall process of photosynthesis.
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 in photosynthesis capture sunlight to produce energy in the form of ATP and NADPH, which are then used in the dark reactions to convert carbon dioxide into glucose. In other words, the light reactions provide the energy needed for the dark reactions to occur and produce sugar.
Carbon fixation (the Calvin Cycle).
The Calvin Cycle
chloroform production
The dark reactions of photosynthesis, also known as the Calvin cycle, occur in the stroma of the chloroplast and do not require light energy. They involve the conversion of carbon dioxide into glucose through a series of enzymatic reactions. The dark reactions use the products of the light reactions, ATP and NADPH, as sources of energy and reducing power.
You should ask Mr. Newberry. Hahaha
