ANSWER:

For the light independent reaction in photosynthesis to occur following things are required in a Calvin cycle:

  • ATP
  • NADPH

  • \bold{C O_(2)}

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The light dependent reaction produces the ATP, NADPH which is then utilized during the light independent reaction. The light independent reaction occurs in Calvin cycle.
  • The light independent reaction occurs in three stages. The first stage initiates from the fixation on the carbon di oxide andthen it is followed by the utilization of the ATP and NADPH.
