Which product is the result of light reactants in photosythesis
slega [8]

The Light Reactions of Photosynthesis. Light is absorbed and the energy is used to drive electrons from water to generate NADPH and to drive protons across a membrane. These protons return through ATP synthase to make ATP.

<u>What is the end product of light reaction in photosynthesis?</u>

The energy from sunlight is converted into a small amount of ATP and an energy carrier called NADPH. Together with carbon dioxide, these are used to make glucose (sugar) through a process called the Calvin Cycle. This is the things happening during light reaction of photosynthesis .

Hope this helps:)
