Question
Which one of the following is represented by Calvin cycle ?
Options
A.Reductive carboxylation
B.Oxidative carboxylation
C.Photophosphorylation
D.Oxidative phosphorylation
Solution
In dark phase or Calvin cycle, carbon dioxide is assimilated with the help of assimilatoey power (ATP and NADPH2) to produce organic acid. The cycle involves reduction of carbon involving carboxylation, glycolytic reversal and regeneration of RuBP. C3 cycle is also known as reduc tive pentose pathway or Photosynthetic Carbon Reduction (PCR).
