CO2
Plants take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to begin the Calvin cycle. They also use ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate) molecules, which are generated during the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, to power the Calvin cycle.
There can be up to 12 PGAL molecules during the Calvin cycle
C:G3P Molecules
G3p
glucose
The Calvin cycle occurs in the stroma of chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are plants that contain the pigment chlorophyll, which makes plants green.

ATP is called energy currency of cell , it is required by all processes of cell including Calvin cycle .

glucose
The final product of one turn of Calvin cycle is 2 molecules of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) molecules. For each G3P synthesized, the cycle spends nine molecules of ATP and six molecules of NADPH2. The light reactions sustain the Calvin cycle by regenerating the ATP and NADPH2.

Plants need them in the Calvin cycle
Dear friend, in Calvin cycle only two kinds of trioses (3C sugars) are formed. In fact, these are not sugars but phospoesters. One is phospoglyceraldehyde and second is dihydroxyacetone phosphate. These are isomers of each other.
c4 plants have first product of calvin cycle is oxaloacetic acid but in c3 plants is phospfoglyceric acid
the calvin cycle uses 6 molecules of carbon dioxide to produce a singe 6carbon sugar molecule
