Answer to Question #214384 in Molecular Biology for Moe

Question

1.6) What are the products of the light reactions that are subsequently used by the Calvin cycle?

1. Carbon dioxide and RuBP
2. Water and carbon
3. Electrons and photons
4. Oxygen and carbon dioxide
5. ATP and NADPH

Answer 1

ATP and NADPH

The light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis include splitting of water in presence of sunlight followed by transfer of released electrons from PSII to PSI via intermediate carriers. The electrons finally reduce the NADP+ into NADPH.
