here's Ur answer
Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase, commonly known by the abbreviations Rubisco, rubisco,RuBPCase, or RuBPco, is an enzyme involved in the first major step of carbon fixation, a process by which atmospheric carbon dioxide is converted by plants and other photosynthetic organisms to energy-rich molecules such as glucose. In chemical terms, it catalyzes the carboxylation of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (also known as RuBP). It is probably the most abundant enzyme on Earth.

Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase
Explanation:
- Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase is known as RuBisCO. It is an enzyme that is also the most abundant protein present on the earth which helps in carbon fixation in plant chloroplast.
- Carboxylation and oxygenation of RuBP is catalyzed by RuBisCO with CO2 and O2. 20-25% of soluble protein is made up of rubisco in plants.
- Through the Calvin cycle, the carbon dioxide is converted into sugar and RuBisCO helps in the process of sugar production because it is involved in the first step of the Calvin cycle.
