Detailed explanation-1: -Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) is produced in the stroma of chloroplasts. Which of the following statements is most accurate regarding this compound? It is produced from glucose during glycolysis. It is a three-carbon sugar.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: Glucose is produced in the stroma of the chloroplast of leaves. Plants produce glucose through the process of photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-3: -1 G3P molecule exits the cycle and goes towards making glucose.
Detailed explanation-4: -The G3P is ultimately converted to glucose. Every 3 cycles of the Calvin Cycle (light independent reaction), 6 molecules of G3P are produced; only 1 is used to produce glucose. The remaining 5 molecules of G3P are used to regenerate RuBP to allow the Calvin Cycle to continue.
Detailed explanation-5: -Glyceraldehyde-3phosphate is abbreviated as G3P. It is the product that is then used to make glucose. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is a three-carbon molecule, whereas glucose is a six-carbon molecule.
