The dark reactions of photosynthesis usually refer to the Calvin cycle where carbon dioxide is converted into glucose. Factors that affect photosynthesis, such as changes in light intensity or temperature, can indirectly impact the dark reactions. For example, if the light reactions are disrupted due to changes in light intensity, it can result in less ATP and NADPH being available for the Calvin cycle, ultimately affecting the production of glucose.
The light reactions will slow down.
The dark reactions, also known as the Calvin cycle, depend on the products of the light reactions, such as ATP and NADPH, to drive the conversion of carbon dioxide into sugars. The ATP and NADPH generated during the light reactions provide the energy and reducing power needed for carbon fixation and sugar production in the dark reactions. Without the products of the light reactions, the dark reactions cannot proceed efficiently.
The light reactions provide energy carriers for the dark reactions.
False. The light reactions of photosynthesis require light to convert solar energy into chemical energy, while the dark reactions (Calvin cycle) do not directly rely on light and can occur in both light and dark conditions. However, the dark reactions are indirectly dependent on the products of the light reactions.
The dark reactions of photosynthesis, also known as the Calvin cycle, occur in the stroma of the chloroplast and do not require light energy. They involve the conversion of carbon dioxide into glucose through a series of enzymatic reactions. The dark reactions use the products of the light reactions, ATP and NADPH, as sources of energy and reducing power.
The light reactions will slow down.
the dark reaction would stop producing glucose.
the dark reaction would stop producing glucose.
the dark reaction would stop producing glucose.
The dark reaction will stop happening
the dark reaction would stop producing glucose.
The dark reactions that occur in plants are dependent on the light reactions because the dark reactions need ATP and NADPH. ATP and NADPH are energy molecules that dark reactions need to do their job.
The light reactions provide energy carriers for the dark reactions.
The end product of the dark reactions is glucose.

Differences: >light reactions occur in the thykaloid membranes, but dark occur in stroma >light reactions are light dependent, or they need light to take place, whereas dark reactions don't > dark reactions use the products of the light reactions >light reactions are the first step of photosynthesis and dark reactions are the second step Similarities: >both in photosynthesis Thats really the only similarity!!! hope this helps :)
