Which statement correctly describes the process that occurs in the thylakoid? atp is produced in the thylakoid during light-independent reactions. atp is produced in the thylakoid during light-dependent reactions. adp and glucose are produced in the thylakoid during light-independent reactions. adp and glucose is produced in the thylakoid during light-dependent reactions.

ATP is produced in the thylakoid during light-dependent reactions.

Explanation:

Thylakoids are membranous compartments in chloroplast of green leafs of plants and primarily involved in light harvesting and contain many integral proteins like photosystems I and II, Cytochrome b6f complex and ATP synthase required for light dependent reaction. Light reaction occurs in thylakoid and ultimately leads to the production of high energy molecules named as ATP. These ATP molecules are then used in another process named as dark reaction (Calvin Benison Cycle) of photosynthesis in which inorganic carbon dioxide is reduced to produce carbohydrate which is an organic molecule. Dark reaction occurs in stroma of chloroplast. Hence, the light energy of plants is converted into chemical energy of food molecules i.e. carbohydrates like glucose and fructose.
