Answer:

The correct answer is option C which is The light reactions harvest ___ energy____, while the carbon reactions produce __carbohydrates_____.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The light dependent reaction is the first part of photosynthesis.
  • In the light energy energy is captured and used to break a water molecule into hydrogen ans oxygen ions with free electrons.
  • These electrons move into a electron transport chain lean to dark reaction.
  • Energy from these electrons is used in the dark reaction to produce carbohydrates from the CO2 and H2O and energy from the light reaction.
