In the process of carbon fixation, three molecules of RuBP combine with three molecules of CO2 to produce three six-carbon molec

ules, which are then split to produce 6 molecules of 3-phosphoglycerate. After phosphorylation and reduction produce 6 glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P), what more needs to happen to complete the Calvin cycle

Answer:

Regeneration of RUBP

Explanation:

Calvin cycle also known as light independent stage is the second stage of the photosynthetic process. It occurs in the Stroma of the CHLOROPLAST. The Calvin cycle can be broken down to three major steps: carbon fixation, reduction and regeneration.

Carbon fixation as described in the question is when 3 molecules of RuBP (CO2 acceptor) combine with 3 molecules of CO2 to produce 3 six-carbon molecules, which are then split to produce 6 molecules of 3-phosphoglycerate (PGA). This fixation is catalyzed by RUBISCO enzyme.

The 6 molecules of PGA are then converted to 6 molecules of Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) by ATP and NADPH (from light stage) in a process called reduction.

After these initial two stages, one of the G3P molecules leave the cycle to contribute to the formation of organic food (glucose) while the remaining 5 G3P molecules are used to regenerate RUBP molecule in order for the cycle to commence all over again starting from fixation.

Explain how the lethal allele is still showing up in the population
timofeeve [1]
Lethal alleles (also referred to as lethal genes or lethal) are alleles that cause the death of the organism that carry them. They are usually a result of mutations in genes that are essential to growth or development. Lethal alleles may be recessive, dominant, or conditional depending on the gene or genes involved. Lethal alleles can cause death of an organism prenatally or any time after birth, though they commonly manifest early in develop
