I'm pretty sure that it takes 2 PGAL's to make 1 glucose . It takes 6 turns of the Calvin cycle since 3 turns give you 1 PGAL.
It takes six turns of the cycle to make one glucose molecule.
6 turns of the calvin cycle to produce one glucose molecule
co2 isn't released in the Calvin cycle it takes in 3 co2 to produce one G3P molecule and does that twice to produce C6H12O6
the calvin cycle uses 6 molecules of carbon dioxide to produce a singe 6carbon sugar molecule
RuBP: Ribulose Biphosphate It is a 5-carbon molecule which combines with carbon dioxide in the Calvin cycle to produce a six-carbon compound. Hope this helps!
Because glucose has 6 carbons and one carbon is incorporated with each turn of the Calvin-Benson cycle.
One turn of the Calvin cycle requires 3 ATP with an addition of 2 NADPH. However, to produce 1 glucose molecule requires 6 turns of the Calvin cycle. 3 ATP per turn X 6 turns = 18 ATP Total 2 NADPH per turn X 6 turns = 12 NADPH Total Reference: Biochemistry, A short course by Tymoczko, Berg, Stryer.

It is the dark reaction. We call it calvin cycle too.

The only product of the Calvin Cycle is 1 molecule of glucose every two turns. It is used to begin the process of Cellular respiration through Glycolysis and is basically used for food to create ATP.
Carbon dioxide
the process of calvin cycle is the second stage of cellular respiration
the Calvin cycle will produce less glucose
6 cycles are required if you consider or start from 1 CO2 , but 2 cycles if you start from 3 CO2 .
