What are light dependent and light independent reactions?

Answer 1

These reactions are related to photosysnthesis.

Light-dependent reactions are those that require light to occur, and light-independent reactions are those that don't require light to occur.

Light-independent reactions, also referred to as the Calvin cycle, take place in the stroma of the chloroplasts. They use the ATP and NADPH generated in the light-dependent reactions to convert carbon dioxide into glucose through a series of enzyme-mediated reactions. Light-dependent reactions take place in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplasts. They require light energy to convert ADP and NADP+ into ATP and NADPH. These reactions also release oxygen as a byproduct.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
