|
ATP
|
|
|
NADPH
|
|
|
sugar
|
|
|
O2

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Light-dependent reactions, which occur in the thylakoid membranes of a chloroplast, is the first stage of photosynthesis. In this stage, ATP and NADPH are produced and these compounds are used by the Calvin cycle for producing glucose. Therefore, sugar is not produced by light-dependent reactions.
Detailed explanation-2: -Complete answer: NADH is not a product of light reaction of photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-3: -The ATP and NADPH from the light-dependent reactions are used to make sugars in the next stage of photosynthesis, the Calvin cycle.
