Question

during the light - dependent reactions of photosynthesis, we would expect what compound(s) to be produced? a. glucose b. atp and nadph c. water and nadph d. glucose and oxygen during the second set of photosynthetic reactions, called the calvin cycle, all but one of the following occurs. a. glucose is the end product of the calvin cycle. b. by - products of the calvin cycle include water vapor and oxygen. c. carbon dioxide, a reactant of photosynthesis, is

Explanation:

1. In the light - dependent reactions of photosynthesis, light energy is used to produce ATP and NADPH. Water is split, releasing oxygen as a by - product. Glucose is not produced in the light - dependent reactions.
2. In the Calvin cycle (the light - independent reactions), carbon dioxide is fixed and used to produce glucose. By - products of the Calvin cycle do not include water vapor. Carbon dioxide is a reactant in the Calvin cycle, not a product of the light - dependent reactions.

Answer:

For the first question about light - dependent reactions: C. ATP and NADPH
For the second question about the Calvin cycle: A. Glucose is the end product of the Calvin cycle.
