The purpose of the light dependent reaction is to convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. This process, also known as the light reactions or light-dependent photosynthesis, occurs in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts.
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.
it is the first stage because the product of the light dependent reaction is ATP and NADPH+H+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Hydrogen) and these are required in the light independent reaction (calvin-benson cycle) I hope this helps :DDD
The light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplasts. This is where sunlight is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH.
In the inner thylakoid membrane of the chloroplasts.
They occur in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplasts in plant cells.

The light-independent reactions, also known as the Calvin cycle, occur in the stroma of the chloroplasts in plant cells. This process uses ATP and NADPH produced during the light-dependent reactions to convert carbon dioxide into sugars.

Within the thylocoids of the chloroplasts.
The two main reactions in photosynthesis are the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin Cycle. Light-dependent reactions take place in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, where light energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. The Calvin Cycle, which is also known as the light-independent reactions, takes place in the stroma of chloroplasts and involves the production of glucose from carbon dioxide using ATP and NADPH produced in the light-dependent reactions.

In photosynthesis, the reactants of the light-dependent reaction are water and light energy, which are used to produce oxygen, ATP, and NADPH. The products of the light-independent reaction (Calvin cycle) are ATP, NADPH, and carbon dioxide, which are used to produce glucose through a series of enzymatic reactions. The light-dependent reaction occurs in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, while the light-independent reaction takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast.

A.T.P. and N.A.D.H are formed during light reaction.
The chloroplasts.
A thylakoid is a membrane compartment that is bound inside the chloroplasts and cyanobacteria. It is the site of the light-dependent reactions for the process of photosynthesis
