Photosynthesis is a two-stage process, the light reactions using photons of light energy to drive molecules to a higher energy state and dark reactions which use the energy molecules to fix carbon dioxide into 6 carbon sugars.
The dark reaction doesn’t have to be in the dark and is also called the light independent reaction.
These reactions are sometimes referred to as photosynthesis 1 (light) and photosynthesis 2 (dark), not to be confused with photosystems I and…
