What is the purpose of photosynthesis?

What is the purpose of the ATP and NADPH produced in the light reactions of photosynthesis?

  • Answer:

    Photosynthesis uses light, water and carbon dioxide to create sugar. This process is divided into two stages, the light-dependent process (light reactions) and the light-independent process (dark reactions). The light reactions store light energy into ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, which is then consumed in the dark reactions to create sugar molecules. Thanks!
