Water, when broken, makes oxygen, hydrogen, and electrons. These electrons move through structures in chloroplasts and by chemiosmosis, make ATP. The hydrogen is converted to NADPH which is then used in the light-independent reactions. Oxygen diffuses out of the plant as a waste product of photosynthesis.This all happens in the thylakoid of chloroplasts.ater, when broken, makes oxygen, hydrogen, and electrons. These electrons move through structures in chloroplasts and by chemiosmosis, make ATP. The hydrogen is converted to NADPH which is then used in the light-independent reactions. Oxygen diffuses out of the plant as a waste product of photosynthesis.
In the process, the oxygen atom in the water separates from the hydrogen atoms and passes out as waste. The remaining hydrogen is collected and eventually synthesized into a carbohydrate molecule. The process that creates the actual food for the plant does not require light, so it's called a dark reaction. In another part of the leaf called the stroma, carbon dioxide that's been absorbed from the environment is reduced into carbon and oxygen.
