The Calvin Cycle OpenStax: Concepts of Biology

In this IBDP Biology blog post, we will learn: The recap of photosynthesisThe detailed process of the Calvin cycle Photosynthesis

Summary · The Calvin Cycle uses the NADPH and ATP from the Light Reactions to “fix” carbon and produce glucose · Carbon dioxide enters the

carbon cycle find a general overview of the light dependent and light independent reactions (Calvin Cycle

calvin cycle Photosynthesis is the use of light energy to “fix” inorganic carbon to organic carbon, so the Calvin cycle is the pathway that actually does the
