Question

Which of the following are products of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis that are utilized in the light-independent reactions?

ATP and NADPH
water and oxygen
oxygen and glucose
carbon dioxide and glucose

Answer 1

`\boxed {\tt Oxygen \ and \ glucose}`

Step-by-step explanation:

The photosynthesis equation is:

energy+6CO₂+6H₂O--> C₆H₁₂O₆+6O₂

The reactants are light energy, carbon dioxide, and water. The products are glucose and oxygen.

The products of photosynthesis become the products of the light-independent reaction called cellular respiration, which creates useable energy. Therefore, the correct answer is oxygen and glucose.
