Solution

The correct option is C Light phase
Photochemical phase is also called as the light phase or hill reaction and it occurs inside the thylakoids. This photochemical phase is mainly dependent on light and it functions to produce assimilatory power, which consists of reduced coenzyme NADPH and energy rich ATP molecules.
So the correct option is 'Light phase'
