QUIZ
Launch ↗ Sugar Factory (Photosynthesis Simulator)
Photosynthesis turns light energy into sugar. The light-dependent reactions in the thylakoid membrane capture that energy as ATP and NADPH, which the Calvin cycle then spends fixing carbon dioxide into glucose. Guide the molecules through both stages inside a working chloroplast.
