What are the reactions of photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis consists of the light-dependent reactions where sunlight is harnessed to split water molecules and create ATP and NADPH, and the Calvin cycle, which uses those energy carriers to convert carbon dioxide into glucose. Pretty cool, huh?

It's like a cosmic cooking class where sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide whip up some sugar and oxygen. Delicious!
So, the reactions are basically two steps: light reactions and Calvin cycle. Sun does the heavy lifting first, and the plant makes sugar in round two!
Photosynthesis reactions are just the plant鈥檚 way to power up鈥攍ike charging its own batteries with sunlight!
