1 Answer. Cyclic photo-phosphorylation in photosynthesis light dependent reaction leads to the formation of ATP and NADPH, and the electrons go from water to PSII to PSI and eventually to NADPH. In non-cyclic photo-phosphorylation only some ATP is produced and the electrons go from PSII to PSI and back again.

Lesson Summary These reactions use photolysis, or the use of light energy to split water molecules and produce oxygen. In these light-dependent reactions, light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and other pigments and transferred to the reaction center of photosystem II.

Oxygenic photosynthesis is composed of two stages: the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions. 4. The light-independent reactions use the ATP and NADPH from the light-dependent reactions to reduce carbon dioxide and convert the energy to the chemical bond energy in carbohydrates such as glucose.

The overall purpose of the light-dependent reactions is to convert light energy into chemical energy. This chemical energy will be used by the Calvin cycle to fuel the assembly of sugar molecules. The light-dependent reactions begin in a grouping of pigment molecules and proteins called a photosystem.

The light-independent reactions of the Calvin cycle can be organized into three basic stages: fixation, reduction, and regeneration.

The ATP and NADPH from the light-dependent reactions are used to make sugars in the next stage of photosynthesis, the Calvin cycle. In another form of the light reactions, called cyclic photophosphorylation, electrons follow a different, circular path and only ATP (no NADPH) is produced.

And when the response is away from the source of light, it is called negative phototropism. For example, we see plants bending towards sunlight. It is actually their response towards light and is called positive phototropism. While, the response of plants towards gravity is called gravitropism or geotropism.
