Question

Which one of the following occurs during the light reactions of photosynthesis?

A. Carbon dioxide fixation
B. G3P production
C. NADPH production
D. Reduction of carbon dioxide

Answer 1

C. NADPH production

The "light reactions" of photosynthesis make ATP and NADPH (and oxygen)

Answer 2

Answer: Option C

Step-by-step explanation: The light dependent reaction uses light to make two molecules that is required in the next stage of the photosynthesis.

These two molecules are ATP, high energy molecule (adenosine triphosphate) and the reduced electron carrier, NADPH. The light reaction takes place in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast.
