Solution

The two phases of photosynthesis are:

  1. Light-dependent reactions (Phase 1): These reactions occur in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast. During this phase, light energy is converted into chemical energy, which is stored in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate).

  2. Calvin Cycle (Light-independent reactions or Phase 2): These reactions occur in the stroma of the chloroplast. During this phase, the chemical energy stored in ATP and NADPH is used to produce glucose from carbon dioxide and water.
