Solution

Photosynthesis

The process of photosynthesis has two phases- light reaction and dark reaction. The light reaction takes place in the presence of sunlight but the dark reaction doesn’t require the presence of light during the process.

The light reaction takes place in the thylakoid. Photosystem I and II are associated with light reaction.
