Which statement about the light-independent reactions in photosynthesis is true?
A
They occur in the thylakoid membranes.
B
They are part of the electron transport chain.
C
They require direct sunlight to proceed.
D
They produce glucose using carbon dioxide and ATP.
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that photosynthesis consists of two main stages: light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle).
Recognize that light-independent reactions, also known as the Calvin cycle, occur in the stroma of the chloroplast, not in the thylakoid membranes.
Identify that the electron transport chain is part of the light-dependent reactions, not the light-independent reactions.
Note that light-independent reactions do not require direct sunlight; they use the ATP and NADPH produced during the light-dependent reactions.
Learn that the primary function of the light-independent reactions is to produce glucose by fixing carbon dioxide using ATP and NADPH.
