Calvin Cycle is the answer

The best answer is Calvin cycle.

The Calvin cycle is the main mechanism by which plants convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrates. The Calvin cycle occurs in three major stages namely the carboxylation phase, reduction phase and regeneration phase in that order.

It is in the carboxylation phase that with the help of an enzyme called RuBisCo that carbon dioxide is added to a sugar called ribulose to form a 6-carbon intermediate which is then converted to 3PGA (3-phosphoglycerate)

3PGA goes through the remaining stages to finally form G3P (glyceraldehyde3 phosphate) which is then used to make carbohydrates essential to the plant such as sucrose, glucose, starch and cellulose.

The Great Oxygen Event marks the time, approximately 2.5 billion years ago, when ________.

Leokris [45]

Answer :There was enough oxygen in the atmosphere to support a major burst of life on Earth

Explanation:

The Great Oxygen Event marks the time, approximately 2.5 billion years ago, when there was enough oxygen in the atmosphere to support a major burst of life on Earth

For the first half of the Earht's history, there was no oxygen in the atmosphere. It was inhabited only by single-celled organisms.Of those simple life forms, the cyanobacteria may have. evolved a way to take energy from sunlight, and used it to make sugars out of water and carbon dioxide. They used the same chemical process we know as photosynthesis. This released vast quantities of oxygen into the atmosphere and triggered the evolution of complex life.

Examples of the energy pyramid to explain production, distribution, and use of food resources

miss Akunina [59]

The energy pyramid (also called ecological pyramid) quantifies the energy transfer from one organism to another along the food chain. Energy decreases as you move through the levels from the bottom to the top of the pyramid.At the bottom are the producers which bring energy from nonliving sources (sun) into the community (photosynthesis).
After the producers (above them) are the primary consumers. They eat the producers, which makes them herbivores. Above them are the secondary consumers. They eat the primary consumers, which makes them carnivores. And at the top are the Tertiary consumers.
