Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the product of light reaction?
A
ATP
B
CO2
C
NADPH
D
O2
E
H2O
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Yes, oxygen is produced in the light reaction of photosynthesis in lumen thylakoid by the photolysis of water.

Detailed explanation-2: -Essentially, oxygen is a waste product of the light reactions of photosynthesis. It is a ‘’leftover” from a necessary part of the process. All the oxygen that is necessary to maintain most forms of life just happens to come about during this process.

Detailed explanation-3: -The light reaction is the first stage of the photosynthesis process in which solar energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. The three products of the light reaction of photosynthesis are ATP, NADPH, and O2.

Detailed explanation-4: -Product of light reactions are ATP, NADPH and O 2. Of these O 2 diffuse out of the chloroplast, while ATP and NADPH are used to drive the process leading to synthesis of food.

Detailed explanation-5: -Most life on Earth depends on photosynthesis. The process is carried out by plants, algae, and some types of bacteria, which capture energy from sunlight to produce oxygen (O2) and chemical energy stored in glucose (a sugar).
