In photosynthesis, the light-independent reactions take place at:

  1. A
    Stromal matrix
  2. B
    Thylakoid lumen
  3. C
    Photosystem - I
  4. D
    Photosystem-II

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The light-dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid membranes, while the light-independent (dark) reactions (Calvin cycle) take place in the stroma (stromal matrix) of the chloroplast.
