Refer to the diagram below showing an overview of photosynthesis to answer the following questions.

1. Identify the inputs and outputs of the light-dependent reactions as shown in the diagram.
2. What is the main purpose of the Calvin cycle, and where does it occur within the chloroplast?
Compare and contrast the electron transport chain in photosynthesis and cellular respiration, focusing on their locations and the ultimate energy products.
