| The light reaction happens in the thylakoid membrane and converts light energy to chemical energy. Of course it must take place in the light. | |

| The light reactions convert light into energy (ATP and NADHP) and the dark reactions, the Calvin Cycle, use the energy and carbon dioxide to produce sugar. | |
