Question
Chapter 8.4, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The need for NADPH during the Calvin cycle.
Introduction: Photosynthesis occurs in two steps. The first reaction is a light-dependent reaction that produces energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. The second step is a light-independent reaction called the Calvin cycle that uses the energy to produce carbohydrates.
