Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The products of the Light Dependent Reactions are
A
oxygen, ADP, NADP+
B
oxygen, ATP, NADPH
C
glucose
D
water, sunlight, glucose
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The light reaction is a light-dependent process which means it only initiates when it is supplied with light energy. It includes a series of events such as light absorption, hydrolysis, the release of oxygen, formation of ATP and NADPH.

Detailed explanation-2: -ATP and NADPH produced by the light-dependent reactions of the photosystems are used by the Calvin cycle in the stroma of the chloroplast.

Detailed explanation-3: -The three products of the light reaction of photosynthesis are ATP, NADPH, and O2.

Detailed explanation-4: -The light-dependent reactions convert light energy into chemical energy, producing ATP and NADPH.

Detailed explanation-5: -Light energy is used by photosynthetic organisms (photoautotrophs) to produce both ATP and reduced electron carrier (NADPH). ATP, NADPH, and O2 are the three products of photosynthesis’ light reaction.
