The right option is; A. The light-independent reactions use ATP and NADPH.

The light-dependent and light-independent (dark) reactions are the two reactions that take place during photosynthesis. The light-dependent reaction occurs in the thylakoid membranes within the chloroplast. This reaction absorbs energy from sunlight to produce the energy storage molecule (ATP) and the reduced electron carrier molecule (NADPH). The light-independent reactions use ATP and NADPH (the products of light-dependent reaction) to produce glucose and other carbohydrate molecules.
