About this document

Understanding Photorespiration in Plants by LaeliaMunawaroh is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The Calvin cycle uses energy from the light reactions in the form of ATP and NADPH, along with carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, to produce organic compounds like glucose. It occurs in the stroma of chloroplasts and involves carbon fixation, reduction of carbon compounds using ATP and NADPH, and regeneration of RuBP using ATP. The rate of photosynthesis is affected by environmental factors like light intensity, temperature, and oxygen concentration due to photorespiration.
