Also known as light-independent (dark) reactions, a set of chemical reactions that occur in the stroma of chloroplasts during photosynthesis1. Carbon dioxide enters the chloroplast.
2. ATPATP:
Short for adenosine triphosphate; the main energy carrier of a cell. and NADPHNADPH:
An energy-carrying molecule in a cell. arrive from the light reactions.
3. The Calvin cycle uses carbon dioxide, ATP, and NADPH molecules to make glucose.
4. ADP and NADP+ return to the light reactions. |
