Question

The second part of photosynthesis, the so called DARK reactions (Calvin-cycle) occur in the absence of light. Which statement IS NOT TRUE? al DARK reactions consume most of the NADPH and ATP produced during the LIGHT reactions. bi the main function of the DARK reactions is to fix carbon dioxide (CO2) molecules producing 3-phophoglycerate (3PG). c) DARK reactions are independent of the LIGHT reactions (photosystem II and I) they consume ATP produced in mitochondria. d) DARK reactions are energetically expensive reactions, they require the input of massive amounts of NADPH and ATP

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

17). c). DARK reactions are independent of the LIGHT reaction (photosystem II & I) they consume ATP produced in mitochondria

Explanation:

Explanation:

DARK reactions are purely dependent of the LIGHT reaction (photosystem II & I) for ATP & NADPH, which is called as assimilatory power.

18). RuBisCo requires direct input of photons from photosystem I
