Question

Which of the following products of Calvin Cycle is directly involved in glucose production?

  1. G3P
  2. 3 PGA
  3. RUBP
  4. RUBISCO

hintHint:

G3P

The correct answer is: G3P


    Each turn of the Calvin cycle fixes one molecule of carbon that can be used to make sugar. It takes three turns of the Calvin cycle to create one molecule of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate. After six turns of the Calvin cycle, two molecules of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate can be combined to make a glucose molecule.
