Light-dependent reaction
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Light-dependent reaction
The first stage of the photosynthetic system is the light-dependent reaction, which converts solar energy into chemical energy.

light-dependent reactions
The reactions of the first stage of photosynthesis, in which light energy is captured by chlorophyll molecules and converted to chemical energy stored in ATP and NADPH molecules.

Light-Dependent Reactions
The light-dependent reactions require light.
These reactions occur in the thylakoid membrane.

Light-dependent reaction cannot be the only source of ATP
"Photosynthesis cannot produce ATP in the dark
Need more ATP than can be produced in photosynthesis
Cannot be produced in plant cells lacking chlorophyll
ATP cannot be transported"1 ...

Describe the role that chlorophylls and the other pigments found in chloroplasts play to initiate the light-dependent reactions.
Describe the function of electron transport systems in the thylakoid membrane.
