The light‑independent reactions of photosynthesis, also called the Calvin cycle, use and produce a variety of molecules. Sort the molecules into three categories: molecules brought in and used in the Calvin cycle, molecules produced during the Calvin cycle that leave the cycle, and molecules made in the cytoplasm from the products of the Calvin cycle.

Respuesta :

Answer:

  1. Carbon dioxide (CO2), ATP and NADPH.
  2. Glucose
  3. Starch

Explanation:

The three categories of molecules that use and produces during Calvin Cycle:

  1. Molecules brought in and used in the Calvin cycle are carbon dioxide (CO2), ATP and NADPH.   Carbon dioxide enters from atmosphere and ATP + NADPH is formed in light reaction.
  2. Molecules produced during the Calvin cycle that leave the cycle is Glucose.
  3. Molecules made in the cytoplasm from the products of the Calvin cycle is the starch. It is a polysaccharide formed from polymerzation of glucose molecules.
