Question

How many NADPH₂, and ATP are required for synthesis of one molecule of glucose?

Answer 1

1 glucose molecule required 18 ATP and 12NADPH2

Answer 2

Answer:

For the production of one molecule of glucose, the number of ATP molecules required is 18.

For the production of one molecule of glucose, the number of NADPH molecule required is 12.

Glucose is yielded after a Calvin cycle where ATP and NADPH molecules are required.

ATP stands for Adenosine Triphosphate and is the main source of energy which is required in Calvin cycle to complete six turns that fixes carbon atoms from carbon dioxide molecule.
