Chloroplasts are organelles with areas that conduct
different specialized activities.
Where in the chloroplast do the light reactions and
the Calvin cycle occur?
Answer:
The light reactions of photosynthesis occur along the
thylakoid membrane. The Calvin cycle occurs in the
stroma, surrounding the thylakoids.

The reactions of photosynthesis make up a
biochemical pathway.
Part A What are the reactants and products for both
the light reactions and the Calvin cycle?
Part B Explain how the biochemical pathway of
photosynthesis recycles many of its own
reactants, and identify the recycled reactants.

Answer:
Part A The reactants for the light reactions of
photosynthesis are sunlight, water, NADP+, and ADP.
The products are oxygen, ATP, and NADPH. The
reactants for the Calvin cycle are ATP, NADPH, CO2,
and RuBP. The products are NADP+, ADP, and
organic compounds.
Part B ADP/ATP, NADP+/NADPH, and electrons are
recycled during photosynthesis. RuBP, which reacts
with CO2 in the Calvin cycle, is regenerated at each
turn of the cycle.
