LIGHT DEPENDENT REACTIONS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following is NOT a product of Light Dependent Reaction?
A
ATP
B
Glucose
C
O2
D
NADPH
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -So NADH is not a product of the light reaction of photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Glucose is synthesised by utilising the assimilatory powers produced during light reaction. 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-3: -Complete answer: NADH is not a product of light reaction of photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
