Question

What is the final product of the Calvin cycle and what happens to it?

Can you answer both of them?

Answer 1

he reactions of the Calvin cycle add carbon (from carbon dioxide in the atmosphere) to a simple five-carbon molecule called RuBP. These reactions use chemical energy from NADPH and ATP that were produced in the light reactions. The final product of the Calvin cycle isglucose.

Answer 2

The Calvin Cycle is the stage of photosynthesis in which carbon is fixed, ultimately leading to the formation of glucose. The actual result of the Calvin cycle is not glucose, a 6-carbon sugar, but another molecule called G3P. G3P is an abbreviation for glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate. This molecule is later converted by other chemical reactions into glucose.
