Question
question 7
energy produced during the light reactions is used:
to produce carbon dioxide
to breakdown atp in the mitochondria
by the cell for movement
to produce glucose in the calvin cycle
to produce oxygen
Brief Explanations
During photosynthesis, the light reactions produce ATP and NADPH. These energy - rich molecules are then used in the Calvin cycle (the light - independent reactions) to convert carbon dioxide into glucose.
- Carbon dioxide is taken in from the atmosphere and is not produced using the energy from the light reactions.
- ATP is produced in the light reactions (not broken down in the mitochondria using light - reaction energy). Mitochondria are involved in cellular respiration.
- The energy from the light reactions is not directly used for cell movement.
- Oxygen is a by - product of the light reactions (produced from the splitting of water), not something that the energy from the light reactions is used to produce.
