The Calvin cycle, also known as the
light-independent reactions, occur in the stroma of the chloroplasts and do not
require light to occur. The stroma is the fluid-filled space surrounding the
thylakoid membranes. It contains the enzymes necessary for the Calvin cycle,
which uses ATP and NADPH from the light-dependent reactions to convert carbon
dioxide into glucose.
The other options are incorrect:
Thylakoid membrane is where the
light-dependent reactions occur.
