Detailed explanation-1: -The light-independent reactions of photosynthesis take place within the stroma. It contains enzymes that work with ATP and NADPH to “fix” carbon from carbon dioxide into molecules that can be used to build glucose. The chloroplast’s own genetic material (separate from that of the cell) is also stored in the stroma.
Detailed explanation-2: -The light-independent reactions represent the known Calvin–Benson–Bassham (CBB) cycle which takes place in the stroma of chloroplasts and is the primary pathway of carbon fixation of C3 plants [119].
Detailed explanation-3: -Final Answer: Light reaction and dark reaction of photosynthesis take place in grana and stroma respectively.
Detailed explanation-4: -Once the light reactions have occurred, the light-independent or “dark” reactions take place in the chloroplast stroma.
