Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The chemical reactions where carbon is removed from carbon dioxide to make other organic molecules such as sugars.
A
Light-dependent reactions
B
Carbon fixing reactions
C
Photoelectric effect
D
Photons
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Calvin cycle uses these compounds to convert carbon dioxide and water into organic compounds that can be used by the organism (and by animals that feed on it). This set of reactions is also called carbon fixation.

Detailed explanation-2: -This process is called carbon fixation, because CO2 is “fixed” from its inorganic form into organic molecules.

Detailed explanation-3: -Biological carbon fixation or arbon assimilation is the process by which inorganic carbon (particularly in the form of carbon dioxide) is converted to organic compounds by living organisms. The compounds are then used to store energy and as structure for other biomolecules.
