Question

What does the Calvin cycle produce?

A) Carbon Dioxide
B) NADPH
C) Glucose
D) ATP

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

B. ATP & NADPH

Explanation:

fruits and vegetables are full of energy. Energy in the form of glucose. The energy from sunlight is briefly held in NADPH and ATP, which is needed to drive the formation of sugars such as glucose.

As Melvin Calvin discovered, carbon fixation is the first step of a cycle. The Calvin cycle transfers energy in small, controlled steps. Each step pushes molecules uphill in terms of energy content. Recall that in the electron transport chain, excited electrons lose energy to NADPH and ATP. In the Calvin cycle, NADPH and ATP formed in the light reactions lose their stored chemical energy to build glucose.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

C) Glucose

Explanation:

The reactions of the Calvin cycle add carbon (from the CO2 in the air) to a simple five-carbon molecule called RuBP. These reactions use chemical energy from NADPH and ATP that were produced in the light reactions. The final product of the Calvin cycle is glucose. In which gives you the answer to your question.
