The two stages of photosynthesis: Photosynthesis takes place in two stages: light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle (light-independent reactions). Light-dependent reactions, which take place in the thylakoid membrane, use light energy to make ATP and NADPH.
1. Energy from the sun is transferred to earth's surface. Some of that energy is then transferred to the air above the surface.
2. The closer a location is to the equator the more energy it receives from the sun. Therefore a location's air temperature is affected by its distance from the equator.
3. An effect my have more than one cause. These may be linked into a chain of effects and causes.
