Question
Which two products of the light-dependent reactions are used up in the Calvin cycle?
Rubisco adds a CO2 molecule to a sugar that contains _______ carbons. The reaction product immediately splits into two sugars that each contain _______ carbons.
O2 can compete with CO2 for a place in the rubisco active site. As a consequenceO2 is incorporated into RuBP instead of CO2. Why might this be a disadvantage?

One is required to produce food, the other to derive energy from food. Each of these processes involves a cycle to complete its goal. For Photosynthesis it is the Calvin Cycle; for Respiration it is the Krebs Cycle. Listed below are features of both cycles. Indicate which 5 of them are associated with the Calvin Cycle.
