Answer:
Explanation:
the Calvin cycle (also known as the Benson-Calvin cycle) is the set of chemical reactions that take place in chloroplasts during photosynthesis. The cycle is light-independent because it takes place after the energy has been captured from sunlight.
In this reaction carbon dioxide is converted into sugars. So it is a process of carbon fixation. The first stable compound produced in Calvin cycle is a 3 carbon compound namely 3 phosphoglyceric acid (PGA). Hence Calvin cycle is also called C3 cycle.
These reactions require three ATPmolecules. RuBP is thus regenerated to begin the cycle again. G3P produced by the Calvin cycle is the raw material used to synthesize glucose and other carbohydrates. The Calvin cycle uses 18 ATP and 12 NADPH molecules to produce one glucose molecule.
