Question:-
How are light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions related?
A. The light-dependent reactions use the products of the light-independent reactions
B. The light-dependent reactions use the reactants of the light-independent reactions
C. The light-independent reactions use the products of the light-dependent reactions
D. The light-independent reactions use the reactants of the light-dependent reactions
Answer:-
C. The light-independent reactions use the products of the light-dependent reactions
Step-by-step explanation:-
In a light-dependent reaction, energy from sunlight is absorbed by chlorophyll (in leaves) and converted into stored chemical energy.
In light-independent reaction, the stored chemical energy collected during the light-dependent reaction promotes the assembly of sugar molecules from carbon dioxide.
