Question

In photosynthesis, light reaction and dark reaction in that sequence are held in

A.

Inner envelope followed by outer membrane

B.

Outer membrane followed by stroma

C.

Grana followed by thylakoid

D.

Grana followed by stroma

Correct option is D

The correct answer is Grana followed by stroma.
· The light-dependent reaction (light reaction) occurs in the grana (specifically in the thylakoid membranes).
· The dark reaction (Calvin cycle) occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast.
· Grana are stacks of thylakoids where chlorophyll traps sunlight.
· Stroma contains enzymes required for carbon fixation.
Information Booster:
· ATP and NADPH formed in the grana are used in the stroma for glucose synthesis.
· CO₂ is fixed into carbohydrates during the dark reaction.
· Light reaction splits water molecules and releases O₂.
· Chloroplasts have double membranes, grana, stroma, and lamellae.
