Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Plants need carbon dioxide from their environment to produce glucose during which stage of photosynthesis?
A
The light-dependent stage
B
The light-independent stage (The Calvin Cycle)
C
The electron transport chain
D
ATP formation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -C3 photosynthesis is used by the majority of plants. It involves producing a three-carbon compound called 3-phosphoglyceric acid during the Calvin Cycle, which goes on to become glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stage II is called the Calvin cycle. This stage combines carbon from carbon dioxide in the air and uses the chemical energy in ATP and NADPH to make glucose.

Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthesis is a series of chemical reactions divided into two stages, the light reactions and the Calvin cycle. During the first stage, water is used and oxygen is produced. In the second and final stage, carbon dioxide is used, and glucose isproduced.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: During photosynthesis glucose is produced during the Calvin cycle, also known as the dark reactions.

Detailed explanation-5: -Calvin cycle is also known as the C3 cycle. It is the cycle of chemical reactions where the carbon from the carbon cycle is fixed into sugars. It occurs in the chloroplast of the plant cell.
