discuss the calvin cycle
Answers
Reduction of carbon dioxide to carbohydrate:- Here carbon dioxide is reduced to glucose (carbohydrates) by the hydrogen in NADPH and by utilising the chemical energy stored in ATP. Dark reaction takes place in stroma regoon of chloroplasts. Melvin Calvin gave the details of this process using radioactive carbon. It is also called as Calvin Cycle. In recognition of his work, Calvin was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1961.

The Calvin cycle uses the energy from short-lived electronically excited carriers to convert carbon dioxide and water into organic compounds that can be used by the organism (and by animals that feed on it). This set of reactions is also called carbon fixation. The key enzyme of the cycle is called RuBisCO.
