Understand that photosynthesis consists of two main stages: the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle (light-independent reactions).
Recognize that the light-dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts and require light energy to proceed.
Identify that the primary purpose of the light-dependent reactions is to convert solar energy into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH.
Note that ATP and NADPH produced in the light-dependent reactions are then used in the Calvin cycle to fix carbon dioxide into glucose.
Acknowledge that while oxygen is released as a byproduct during the light-dependent reactions, the main purpose is the production of ATP and NADPH for the Calvin cycle.
