In this stage of photosynthesis, ATP and NADPH are converted to ADP+Pi and NADP+
Correct answer: B. Light independent reaction
- A. Light dependent reaction
- B. Light independent reaction
- C. Both of these options are correct
- D. None of the above options are correct
Explanation
The Calvin cycle takes place in the stroma and uses the ATP and NADPH from the light-dependent reactions to fix carbon dioxide, producing three-carbon sugars-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, or G3P, molecules. The Calvin cycle converts ATP to ADP and Pi, and it converts NADPH to NADP+ in light-independent reactions.

About Bioenergetics
Cellular respiration explains how cells release energy from glucose through glycolysis, the link reaction, Krebs cycle and electron transport chain. It includes ATP production, substrate-level and oxidative phosphorylation, aerobic versus anaerobic respiration, and the roles of mitochondria, oxygen and fermentation in energy transfer.
