Best Answer

yes, it is. <- Trolololol.

CO2 is first fixated by adding CO2 to Organic Compounds (external or Auto made) to make it RuBP. The Reduction part is the Use of ATP and NADPH from noncyclic part of photophosphorylation, to energize CO2-> carbohydrate.

What is the carbon source used in photosynthesis?

Carbon dioxide. In the light-independant reaction of photosynthesis (Calvin cycle) the enzyme RuBisCo catalyzes the carboxylation of RuBP with carbon dioxide, and catalyzes the primary chemcal reaction in which carbon permanently enters the biosphere.


What is the role of redox reaction in photosynthesis?

its is used when carbon is reduced when electrons are added to it. This is when the electrons are being moved from water to sugar.

How does the carbon dioxide form in calving cycle?

Carbon dioxide doesn't form in the Calvin Cycle (I assume you're referring that because there isn't such a thing as the "Calving Cycle" in biochemistry. Carbon dioxide must be taken in by the plant via the stomata and it is then used by the plant in photosynthesis. Clearly, this is why plants rely on carbon dioxide to complete the Calvin cycle and in large, photosynthesis. ~ nkindianhobo ~


What are the materials needed to start photosynthesis?

Light, carbon dioxide, and water are the materials needed to start photosynthesis. The carbon dioxide is needed for the Calvin cycle while the light and water are required for the light reactions.
