Question

1. energy captured in photosynthesis comes from the sun. 4. photosynthesis occurs in a plant cell. 5. the first step of photosynthesis is called the light - reactions and they occur in the thylakoids of the chloroplast. 6. the second step of photosynthesis is called the light - independent reactions and they occur in the stroma of the chloroplast. use the word bank to answer questions 3 - 9. word bank: light - independent reactions, atp, light reactions, stroma, chloroplast, nadph, sun, carbon dioxide, water, glucose, oxygen, thylakoids

Explanation:

Photosynthesis has two main stages. The light - reactions are the first step and occur in the thylakoids of the chloroplast, capturing energy from the sun. The second step is the light - independent reactions (Calvin cycle) which occur in the stroma of the chloroplast.

Answer:

1. sun
2. thylakoids
3. light reactions; thylakoids
4. light - independent reactions; stroma
