What is not considered a reactant in the light independent reaction or Calvin Cycle in photosynthesis?
|
|
carbon dioxide
|
|
|
ATP
|
|
|
NADH
|
|
|
All are considered reactants
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The light reaction of photosynthesis does not include carboxylation.
Detailed explanation-2: -So, the correct option is ‘Light’.
Detailed explanation-3: -The synthesis of glucose occurs in stroma and this does not require light. Hence, the reaction for synthesis of glucose is a light-independent reaction.
Detailed explanation-4: -The light-independent reaction uses the electrons from the light-dependent reactions to energize the process, particularly during the conversion of inorganic compounds into organic compounds, such as carbohydrates. They do not require light or energy from the sun to initiate the reaction.
