What is C3 Plant Photosynthesis: Calvin Cycle Explained about?
The document summarizes the light-independent Calvin cycle of photosynthesis in C3 plants. It occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast and fixes atmospheric CO2 into glucose molecules using ATP and reduced NADP produced by the light-dependent reaction. Carbon dioxide is fixed into unstable intermediates by the enzyme RuBISCO and combined with ribulose bisphosphate to form two molecules of glycerate 3-phosphate. These are then converted back into RuBP using ATP and NADPH, producing sugars, amino acids and lip
