Photosynthesis and Respiration

What is the main function of chloroplasts in photosynthesis?

• Capturing light energy and converting it into chemical energy

• Producing oxygen and water

• Regulating the entry and exit of materials

• Breaking down glucose into ATP

What is the role of light in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis?

• Light has no role in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis

• Light is responsible for converting carbon dioxide into glucose

• Light is absorbed by chlorophyll and other pigments to excite electrons and generate ATP and NADPH.

• Light is used to break down ATP and NADPH into smaller molecules
