Front

What role does water (H2O) play in the light dependent reactions?

Back

Water is split to provide electrons, protons, and oxygen.

Front

What is the significance of NADPH in photosynthesis?

Back

NADPH is used as a reducing agent in the Calvin cycle to help convert carbon dioxide into glucose.

Front

What is the role of ATP in the light dependent reactions?

Back

ATP provides the energy needed for various biochemical processes, including the Calvin cycle.
