To identify the molecule that accepts , Calvin and Benson manipulated the carbon-fixation cycle by either cutting off or cutting off light from cultures of photosynthetic algae. They then measured the concentrations of various metabolites immediately following the manipulation. The acceptor concentration would increase when the is cut off, but decrease when the light is cut off.
The correct option is d.
The process through which living things absorb inorganic carbon from the atmosphere and transform it into organic molecules is known as carbon fixation. These substances are employed as chemical energy storage. For life to continue, it is a necessary process.
Calvin and Benson disrupted the carbon-fixation cycle by either removing or removing light from cultures of photosynthetic algae in order to find the molecule that takes . Following the alteration, they evaluated the concentrations of several metabolites.

In photosynthesis, using light energy, plants convert CO2 and H2O into O2 and C6H12O6
CO2= carbon dioxide
H2O= water
O2= oxygen
C6H12O6= glucose
I am not too sure about this but

Explanation:
DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is the name for the molecule that contains the genetic information in all living things. This molecule consists of two strands that wind around each other to form a double helix structure.
The basic unit of nucleic acids are called nucleotides, which are organic molecules formed by the covalent bonding of a nucleoside (a pentose which is a type of sugar and a nitrogenous base) and a phosphate group. So each nucleotide is made up of a pentose sugar called deoxyribose, a nitrogenous base which can be adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) or guanine (G) and a phosphate group.
<u>What distinguishes one polynucleotide from another is the nitrogenous base</u>, and thus the sequence of DNA is specified by naming only the sequence of its bases. The sequential arrangement of these four bases along the chain is what encodes the genetic information, following the following criterion of complementarity: A-T and G-C. So the sequence of these bases along the chain is what encodes the instructions for forming proteins and RNA molecules. In living organisms, DNA occurs as a double strand of nucleotides, in which the two strands are linked together by connections called hydrogen bridges.
The chemical convention of naming the carbon atoms in the pentose nucleotide pentose numerically confers the names 5' end and 3' end ("five prime end" and "three prime end" respectively). The 5'-end designates the end of a DNA strand that coincides with the phosphate group of the fifth carbon of the respective terminal deoxyribose. A phosphate group attached to the 5'-end allows the ligation of two nucleotides; for example, the covalent bonding of the 5'-phosphate group to the 3'-hydroxyl group of another nucleotide, to form a phosphodiester bond.
