About this document
Light-Dependent Reactions in Photosynthesis by azwelljohnson is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The light-dependent reaction involves two key processes: (1) the production of ATP through photophosphorylation as electrons are transported through an electron transport chain, and (2) the splitting of water through photolysis, which produces electrons, hydrogen ions, and oxygen. The electrons are used to reduce NADP, while the hydrogen ions are absorbed by NADP. Together, ATP and reduced NADP provide energy and power for the light-independent reaction of carbon fixation. The light-dependent reaction takes
