What molecules created in the light dependent reactions supply the energy to run the Calvin cycle?
A
ATP & NADPH
B
ADP & NADH
C
chlorophyll & ATP
D
carotenoids & chlorophyll
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -ATP and NADPH produced by the light-dependent reactions of the photosystems are used by the Calvin cycle in the stroma of the chloroplast. Molecules of CO2 gas are fixed into molecules of 3-phosphoglycerate in a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme Rubisco.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Calvin Cycle requires ATP and NADPH, products of light reactions.
