The true statements about light independent reaction are as follows:

  1. Carbon dioxide is necessary for light-independent reactions
  2. Light-independent reactions occur in the stroma.

LIGHT-INDEPENDENT REACTION:

  • Light independent reaction is also called Calvin cycle. It is the second stage of photosynthesis, which can occur with or without light.

  • Light independent reactions make use of the products of light reaction, which are ATP and NADPH molecules to synthesize glucose molecule.

  • Light independent reactions occur in the stoma of the chloroplast and it makes use of carbon dioxide for fixation of carbon.

  • Therefore, the true statements about light independent reaction are as follows:
  1. Carbon dioxide is necessary for light-independent reactions
  2. Light-independent reactions occur in the stroma
