Light Dependent Reactions – Process;
In photosynthesis, light energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of glucose. This process occurs in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast. Light dependent reactions are the first step in photosynthesis and involve the conversion of light energy into chemical energy. The light dependent reactions are powered by light energy and occur in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast. The light dependent reactions are used to produce the energy carrier molecule NADPH and the enzyme RuBP carboxylase.
