Review the schematic diagram of photosynthesis and the involvement of the chloroplast in this process. Which statement below is

accurate?
ADP = ATP occurs regardless of the presence of solar energy.
ATP and NADPH are utilized in the stroma to break down water and
produce hydrogen ions.
Carbon dioxide is critical to the initiation of the light independent
reactions occurring in the stroma.
Carbon dioxide combines with water in the thylakoid membranes to
produce stored chemical energy in the form of ATP.

Answer:

Carbon dioxide is critical to the initiation of the light independent

reactions occurring in the stroma.

Explanation:

Carbondioxide is a raw material which is used as a reactant in the process of photosynthesis. In photosynthesis process, carbondioxide enters into the leaves through a small opening called stomata. From there, it goes to the stroma which is essential part of chloroplast. This carbondioxide is necessary for the initiation of light independent reaction of photosynthesis.
