The correct option is B.
The light dependent reaction of photosynthesis requires sunlight energy to occur. When the chlorophyll absorb the sun's energy, electrons inside the plant gains energy as a result of absorbing photons of light from the sunlight. This energy obtained from the sun is then use to make ATP and NADPH molecules.

Correct answer choice is:

B. Requires photons to occur.

Explanation:

The light-dependent reactions utilize light energy to produce two molecules required for the following stage of photosynthesis: the energy warehouse molecule ATP and the decreased electron transport NADPH. In plants, the light reactions occur in the thylakoid membranes of organelles termed chloroplasts.
