Question

What are the raw materials, or reactants, for Stage 2 of photosynthesis, and where do these materials come from?

Solution

Verified

The second stage is called the light-independent reaction (also known as the Calvin cycle). The products of the first stage of photosynthesis are the raw materials used during this stage. It uses carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and energy molecules to produce glucose. This cycle does not require the presence of light.
