1
New cards

what is the first stage of Calvin cycle

Carbon dioxide combines with ribulose bisphosphate using the enzyme rubisco

2
New cards

what happens as a result of rubisco catalysing the reaction between co2 and ribulose bisphosphate

2 molecules of glycerate-3-phosphate formed

3
New cards

what is the function of reduced NADP

reduced NADP with the energy from ATP reduces glycerate-3-phosphate into 2 molecules of triose phosphate

4
New cards

what is triose phosphate converted into

Triose phosphate converted to glucose

5
New cards

how many cycles does it take to convert 1 molecule of co2 into 1 molecule of glucose

6 turns
