carbon dioxide is used to build sugars.
oxygen is produced.

done

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Thylakoid membranes (grana):
  • The light - dependent reactions of photosynthesis occur here.
  • Chlorophyll (in the thylakoid membranes) captures the Sun's energy.
  • Water is split to produce oxygen.
  • Energy is transferred to ATP and NADPH.
  • Stroma:
  • The light - independent reactions (Calvin cycle) occur here.
  • Carbon dioxide is used to build sugars (through a series of enzyme - catalyzed reactions).

Answer:

  • For the thylakoid membranes of the grana: The Sun’s energy is captured, Oxygen is produced, Energy is transferred to ATP.
  • For the stroma of the chloroplast: Carbon dioxide is used to build sugars.
