Photosynthetic organisms get the energy needed to make sugars during the light-independent reactions (also known as the Calvin cycle) by using the ATP and NADPH that are produced during the light-dependent reactions. So, the correct response is:
**They use the ATP and NADPH that are produced during the light-dependent reactions.**
**They use the ATP and NADPH that are produced during the light-dependent reactions.**
