Answer to Question #117033 in Biology for Shreeya Gurung

Question #117033
During photosynthesis, the process of carbon fixation, Rubisco Bisphosphate (RuBP) attaches a CO2 to produce a 6 carbon molecule. The resulting molecule then split in two. Following this phosphorylation and reduction occurs. What more needs to happen in the Calvin cycle?

The final step of the Calvin cycle that occurs after fixation, phosphorylation, and reduction is the regeneration of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate that is further used for the fixation of carbon dioxide in the new cycle. Regeneration of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate requires ATP and uses glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate produced in the earlier steps of the Calvin cycle.
