pyruvate

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Rubisco can bind to either carbon dioxide or oxygen depending on environmental conditions. Binding to carbon dioxide and initiation of the Clavin cycle is favored at low temperatures and at a high carbon dioxide-to-oxygen ratio.
Detailed explanation-2: -Ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco; EC 4.1. 1.39) catalyzes the addition of gaseous carbon dioxide to ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate (RuBP), generating two molecules of 3-phosphoglyceric acid (3-PGA), and is thus the key enzyme in CO2 assimilation.
