The net gain of light reaction in non cyclic photophosphorylation is 3 ATP and 2 NADPH and oxygen is evolved.
While in cyclic photophosphorylation 1 ATP is gained.

∙ 10y agoThe net gain in the light reaction of photosynthesis is the production of ATP and NADPH molecules, which are then used in the Calvin cycle to produce glucose. These molecules carry the energy captured from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy.
The light reaction produces ATP and NADPH, which are needed to fuel the dark reaction. The dark reaction (Calvin Cycle) uses the ATP and NADPH produced in the light reaction to fuel the conversion of carbon dioxide into glucose. In essence, the light reaction provides the energy source that drives the dark reaction.
There must be a light reaction first before dark reaction. This is so that there is something to be compared.
which stages would be considered a light reaction?
It is the light reaction. Then they moves to dark reaction
The Light Dependent process and then the Light Independent process (known as the Calvin Cycle).
The light reaction produces ATP and NADPH, which are needed to fuel the dark reaction. The dark reaction (Calvin Cycle) uses the ATP and NADPH produced in the light reaction to fuel the conversion of carbon dioxide into glucose. In essence, the light reaction provides the energy source that drives the dark reaction.
why light reaction of photosynthesis is essential before the dark reaction can procced?
A.T.P. and N.A.D.H are formed during light reaction.
There must be a light reaction first before dark reaction. This is so that there is something to be compared.
the respiriration is such a oxidative reductive process ... and during plant it have two complex more process consist of seriese of steps DARK reaction and Light reaction.................... dark reaction need no light wheather in day time or night time...................... some how the light reaction are done in the prescence of light ..........during the light reaction the formation of the light reaction is just one ATP Which is responsible for the production of dark reaction .............
Light reaction is not produced by chlorophyll .
A.T.P. and N.A.D.H are formed during light reaction.
Water is essential in the light reaction of photosynthesis as it serves as a source of electrons for photosystem II to replace those lost during electron transport. When water molecules are split in a process known as photolysis, oxygen is released, and electrons are transferred to chlorophyll in the photosystem, which initiates the electron transport chain.
chemical reaction brought on by light ( latin: photo - light)
which stages would be considered a light reaction?
Carbon dioxide is released during the light reaction.
