Answer:

Carbon fixation and Rubisco enzyme

Explanation:

The carbon fixation is usually referred to as the process that involves the transformation of CO₂ into organic molecules. This process occurs during the time of photosynthesis, where, the CO₂ is obtained from the atmosphere by the leaves of plants in the presence of sunlight and converts it into useful organic molecules. This is also known as the Calvin cycle, in which all the consumers are dependent on.

Rubisco is usually defined as an enzyme that is secreted by the plants and it is essential to carry out the initial step for the carbon fixation process. It is commonly written as 'RuBisCO'.
