____ name for the light-independent reactions
A
Calvin cycle
B
kelvin cycle
C
Krebs cycle
D
Kalvin Cycle
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The reactions that make up the process of photosynthesis can be divided into light-dependent reactions, which take place in the thylakoids, and light-independent reactions (also known as dark reactions or the Calvin cycle), which take place in the stroma.

Detailed explanation-2: -The light-independent reactions of the Calvin cycle can be organized into three basic stages: fixation, reduction, and regeneration.

Detailed explanation-3: -The light independent process (also called dark reactions or the Calvin-Benson cycle) takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast. Carbon dioxide is modified by series of chemical reactions to form carbohydrates. The energy for these reactions comes from ATP and NADPH generated during the light dependent process.

Detailed explanation-4: -Overview of the Calvin cycle These reactions are also called the light-independent reactions because they are not directly driven by light.

Detailed explanation-5: -The light-independent reactions (dark reactions) are also known as the Calvin-Benson cycle [10].
