Question
Photosynthesis is a complex process. Two main stages of photosynthesis are:
H20
co
1 Light dependent reactions
This step converts light energy to chemical
energy.
Light
NADP
2 Calvin Cycle
Also known as the light independent reaction. In
this stage, CO2 is taken up by one of the
molecules in the cycle. ATP and NADPH reduce
CO2 to a carbohydrate (G3P).
ADP
LIGHT
CALVIN
REACTIONS
CYCLE
Thylakoid
Stroma
NADPH
1. Inside of the chloroplast, chlorophyll
molecules absorb light and convert
light energy to chemical energy. In
what stage of photosynthesis is
chlorophyll needed? Why?
Chloroplast
(CH20]
(sugar)
6 CO2 + 12 H20 + light energy → CeH12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H20
carbon dioxide + water + light energy > glucose + oxygen + water
3. What are the inputs/ reactants for Calvin
cycle?
2. What are the two outputs/ products
of light dependent reactions?
