Even though the steps of photosynthesis that actually produce sugar molecules are part of the carbon fixation reactions, the light-dependent reactions are absolutely essential for sugar synthesis. Explain the role of the light-dependent
reactions in the formation of the end products of photosynthesis. What will be an ideal response?
Concepts to Consider: The light-dependent reactions produce ATP and NADPH, which are
two molecules that contain much of the original energy absorbed from the sun; it is these
compounds that supply energy to the endergonic process of carbon fixation.
