About this document

Photosynthesis: Light Reactions & Calvin Cycle by Percen7 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Photosynthesis consists of two main stages: light reactions and the Calvin cycle. In light reactions, plants convert light energy into chemical energy (ATP) and produce NADPH by transferring electrons from water, while the Calvin cycle uses ATP and NADPH to convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrates. The process involves electron transport chains and photophosphorylation, where light energy is harnessed to produce ATP and NADPH, with oxygen being released as a byproduct from the splitting of water.
