g The first phase of the Calvin cycle is the (a)_____ phase. During this phase, a single CO2 molecule located in the (b)______ o

f the chloroplast gets fixed with (bonds with) a CO2-acceptor molecule called (c)_____ . This is a (d)_____ (number)-carbon molecule, which becomes an unstable 6-carbon molecule once it is carboxylated by CO2. This unstable molecule immediately splits into (e)______ (number) 3-carbon molecules called (f)_____ , which are the products of this phase of the Calvin cycle.

Answer:

a) Carbon fixation phase

b) stroma  

c) Ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP)

d) 5-carbon molecule

e) two carbon molecules

f) glycerate-3-phosphate (GP)

Explanation:

In the Calvin cycle (also named C3 cycle or Calvin-Benson cycle), the CO2 is reduced in a cyclic process, where the first stable reaction product is 3-phosphoglyceric acid (3-PGA), a 3-C molecule, and the CO2 acceptor molecule is Ribulose bisphosphate (i.e., Ribulose 1, 5-diphosphate). The CO2 enters the chloroplast by passing through the stomata and diffusing into the stroma of the chloroplast, which is the site where sugar is synthesized. The Rubisco enzyme or RuBP carboxylase catalyzes the first step of the cycle (i.e., the attachment of CO2 to RuBP). The result of this reaction is an unstable 6C molecule, which breaks down into two 3C molecules named glycerate-3-phosphate (GP).

Where do plants get the carbon needed to make glucose molecules during the process of photosynthesis?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

From CARBONDIOXIDE (CO2) found in the atmosphere

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process performed by autotrophic organisms like green plants. It is a phenomenon whereby these plants manufacture their own food (sugars) using an inorganic carbon source in the presence of sunlight to provide energy.

The major end product of photosynthesis is glucose, which has a carbon constituent i.e. C6H12O6. However, this carbon needed to make glucose is got from an inorganic molecule called CARBON DIOXIDE, which the plants take from the atmosphere in via the stomata on their leaves.

What did fungi diverge from?
prisoha [69]
Hopes this helps:

Answer: In 1998 scientists discovered that fungi split from animals about 1.538 billion years ago, whereas plants split from animals about 1.547 billion years ago. This means fungi split from animals 9 million years after plants did, in which case fungi are actually more closely related to animals than to plants.

Have a great day.
