question 6
what are the products of the light reactions of photosynthesis that are utilized in the calvin cycle?
adp and nadp
atp and nadph
o2 and glucose
co2 and o2
none of the above

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In the light reactions of photosynthesis, light energy is used to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate) through photophosphorylation and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate - hydrogen) through the reduction of NADP+. These two products, ATP and NADPH, are then utilized in the Calvin Cycle. The Calvin Cycle uses ATP for energy and NADPH for reducing power to convert carbon dioxide into glucose. ADP and NADP are reactants in the light reactions (not products used in the Calvin Cycle). O₂ is a by - product of the light reactions and glucose is a product of the Calvin Cycle (not directly used in it). CO₂ is taken in for the Calvin Cycle, but O₂ is not used in the Calvin Cycle.

Answer:

ATP and NADPH
