Answer:

Light-dependent reactions

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, the light-independent reactions and the same thing as the Calvin cycle, so your teacher wouldn't put them in the same question if one of them was correct. Aside from that, even if you have no idea what these things are we can use the names of them to see which one light is involved in. Aha! It's the light-dependent reactions because they're dependent on light (and water) to make the chemical energy (NADPH and ATP) to pass on to the next stage, the light-independent reactions.
