Dark reactions are the other name for

The reactions are named this because they require light.

ATP is the for the carbon-fixing reactions.

null

According to the diagram there are different reactions in the processes of the carbon-fixing reactions (how many?).

null

The carbon-fixing reactions take place on the of the thylakoids.

Reaction 1 carbon dioxide combines with a molecule of (use the abbreviation).

The substance that is formed in the previous question contains six carbons. When it is broken down (split), is formed as the product of reaction 1 (use the abbreviation).

The product of reaction 1 has carbon atoms.

null

Reaction 2 uses molecules of PGA to form (use the abbreviation).

null

Reaction 3 forms (use the abbreviation).

Besides DPGA, (which, along with ATP, is an energy source for this process) is also used in reaction 3, which is converted to NADP (use the abbreviation).

null

Reaction 4 forms sugars (carbohydrates), which is the primary product of photosynthesis.

Nokorɛ

Ɛnyɛ ampa

Reaction 5 forms from PGAL.

Examples of carbohydrates include: cellulose, maltose, glucose, and .

null

In reaction 6, (need a number) molecules of (need an abbreviation) are used to form 3 molecules ribulose phosphate.

In summary of the most imporatant parts...

ATP, and not light energy, is used as the source of energy to drive the reactions of the dark reactions.

During the light reactions (from yesterday), light is used as an energy source to form ATP and NADPH which are used as energy sources for the dark reactions.

During the light reactions (from yesterday), light is used as an energy source to form ATP and NADPH which are used as energy sources for the dark reactions.
