what is calvin cycle and krebs cycle?


amreenfatima78691: please answer this question I will mark as brainlist
joshimishi33: The main reason would be that in Kreb's cycle we have oxidation of glucose and synthesis of ATP molecules via ETC (electron transport chain). This occurs in the mitochondria of all organisms which includes plants also. But Calvin cycle is the cycle which creates glucose in the first place.

❤️Calvin cycle :-

The light-independent reactions of photosynthesis are called the Calvin cycle, and are carried out in the stromafluid in chloroplasts.

In this process, monosaccharides are generated by fixing and reducingenvironmental carbon dioxide (CO2) with energy derived through photophosphorylation in the light-dependent reactions carried out on thylakoid membranes in chloroplasts by harvesting light.

These monosaccharides from the Calvin cycle are used by the cell for structure and cellular respiration.





Krebs cycle :-

Kreb Cycle or Tri carboxylic acid cycle or citric acid cycle is the third step of oxidation of glucose or cellular respiration.This cycle was demostrated by Sir Hans Kreb.

Acetyl CoA binds with oxaloacetate and starts the reaction . ATP are formed during the cycle.

It is called a cycle because oxaloacetate is again formed and reused in the reaction.
