Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which molecule acts as an electron carrier in the light reactions?
Correct Answer: NADPH
  • Step 1: Understand that light reactions are part of photosynthesis, which occurs in plants.
  • Step 2: Know that during light reactions, sunlight is used to convert water and carbon dioxide into energy.
  • Step 3: Learn that during this process, electrons are transferred through a series of proteins.
  • Step 4: Identify that NADPH is a molecule that picks up these electrons.
  • Step 5: Conclude that NADPH is the electron carrier in the light reactions.
