Answer: In the chloroplast, light dependent reactions take place in the thylakoid membrane while light independent reactions take place in the stroma.
Explanation: photosynthesis is the process by which carbohydrates or sugars are manufactured in the green parts of the plants containing chlorophyll by combination of carbondioxide and water with the aid of radiant energy of sunlight while oxygen is given out as a by- product.
The mechanism of photosynthesis involves two major reactions:
- Dark reaction which is also called the light independent reaction as it doesn't require light to take place at the stroma and
-light reaction which is also called the light dependent reaction as it takes place only in the presence of sunlight at thylakoid membrane. I hope this helps. Thanks.
