Yeah the right one it's D
My guess is that you're wanting the formula for respiration (which is basically the opposite of the formula for photosynthesis)?
So on the left (reactant/inputs) side should be: sugar and oxygen
On the right (products/outputs) side should be:
Carbon dioxide, water, light energy/ATP
Answer:
The correct answer is option a.
Explanation:
Yes, the light reactions also depend upon the Calvin cycle. Calvin cycle refers to a phenomenon that is used by the plants and algae to convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into sugar, the food needed by the autotrophs in order to grow. The plants rely upon the Calvin cycle for food and energy.
In the given case, the rate of oxygen production would get diminish as the rate of ATP and NADP+ generated by the Calvin cycle diminishes. Of all the outcomes of the Calvin cycle, ADP and NADP+ are the only ones that get utilized by light reactions.
The ADP and NADP+ are used up by the light reactions to fuel their reactions. This illustrates that if the rate of ADP and NADP+ generated by the Calvin cycle diminishes the production of oxygen by the light reactions also diminishes.
