A student labels a chloroplast diagram with reactants and products of each set of reactions.
Which inputs and outputs are correctly assigned to the light reactions?
- A
Inputs: G3P and light; outputs: O2 and CO2
- B
Inputs: NADPH and CO2; outputs: H2O and ADP
- Ccheck_circle
Inputs: H2O and light; outputs: O2, ATP, NADPH
- D
Inputs: CO2 and ATP; outputs: G3P and O2
Explanation
Light reactions in thylakoids split H2O (releasing O2), use light to drive electron transport, and produce ATP and NADPH that fuel the Calvin cycle in the stroma.
