Which of the following does NOT occur during the Calvin Cycle
|
|
carbon fixation
|
|
|
oxidation of NADPH
|
|
|
release of oxygen
|
|
|
regeneration of the carbon dioxide acceptor
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -So the correct answer will be third that is release of oxygen. It does not occur during the Calvin cycle.
Detailed explanation-2: -Plants rely on the photosynthesis process to obtain energy by two steps: (1) to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose from sunlight in thylakoids; (2) in the Calvin cycle, energy (adenosine triphosphate, ATP) and oxygen (O2) are released when decomposing glucose into pyruvate in stroma [14].
Detailed explanation-3: -Light energy is converted to chemical energy.
Detailed explanation-4: -Thus, the correct answer is option C.
