need help? review these concept resources.
In photosynthesis, light - dependent reactions produce oxygen, ATP, and NADPH. The Calvin cycle (light - independent reactions) uses ATP and NADPH to fix carbon dioxide and produce glucose. Oxygen is a by - product of the splitting of water in light - dependent reactions and is released into the atmosphere or used in respiration, and it does not participate in the Calvin cycle. ATP and NADPH are the energy - carrying molecules that are used in the Calvin cycle.
