The Light-dependent reaction and Light independent reaction takes place on different parts of the chloroplast. L-D reaction takes place at the chloroplast's stroma while the L-IND reaction happens at the chloroplast's thylakoid. So,the statement that distinguishes the light-independent reaction from the light dependent reaction is letter A.
