Question

In which step of the light independent reaction is G3P producod?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis process takes place in two phases: light-dependent reaction and light-independent reaction.

The light-independent reaction takes place in the fluid-filled space called stroma of a chloroplast and is involved in the formation of glucose molecules. The light-independent reactions take place in cycles and are known as the Calvin cycle.

Calvin cycle proceeds in three phases: carboxylation or carbon fixation, reduction and regeneration. During reduction, the ATP and NADPH provides energy and hydrogen atom to the 3-PGA which gets converted to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P).

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
