Question
question: the end products of light - dependent reactions in photosynthesis are ____ and atp. answer input: spelling counts but capitalization doesnt.
In photosynthesis, light - dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. During these reactions, water is split, and energy from light is used to generate ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate). NADPH is an energy - carrying molecule that, along with ATP, is used in the light - independent (Calvin cycle) reactions to fix carbon dioxide into glucose. So the end product of light - dependent reactions, other than ATP, is NADPH.
