Science Question

“I require a comprehensive academic analysis of the photosynthesis process in C3 plants. Please provide a high-level explanation covering the following technical aspects:

• The molecular mechanics of the Light-Dependent Reactions within the thylakoid membrane.
• A detailed breakdown of the Calvin Cycle (Light-Independent Reactions), specifically carbon fixation, reduction, and regeneration.
• The complete balanced chemical equation (6CO_2 + 6H_2O rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2).
• The specific roles of ATP and NADPH in the synthesis of glucose.

Please ensure the response uses professional biological terminology and is structured for advanced academic study.”
