Answer» Correct Answer - B Light reactions (or photochemical phase) of photosynthesis mainly occur on the grana thylakoids. Dark reactions (or biosynthetic phase) which involves synthesis of chrbophydrates by `CO_(2)` fixation, occur in the stroma (or matrix) of chloroplasts. The chloroplast matrix of higher plants stores starch temproality in the form of starch granules. |
