DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -The ATP and NADPH from the light-dependent reactions are used to make sugars in the next stage of photosynthesis, the Calvin cycle. In another form of the light reactions, called cyclic photophosphorylation, electrons follow a different, circular path and only ATP (no NADPH) is produced.

Detailed explanation-3: -Glucose is the end product. ATP and NADPH help in the formation of glucose. The water molecules split into hydrogen and oxygen. Glucose is produced.

Detailed explanation-4: -The light-dependent reactions can be summarized as follows: 12 H2O + 12 NADP+ + 18 ADP + 18 Pi + light and chlorophyll yields 6 O2 + 12 NADPH + 18 ATP.

Detailed explanation-5: -The light-dependent reaction is a photochemical reaction taking place in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, where light energy is transformed into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH).
