The Calvin cycle does not require light because it uses ATP and NADPH produced from the light reactions to produce sugar. ATP and NADPH power the reaction to produce sugar from CO2

Why are the reactions of the Calvin cycle also called the light independent?
because the Calvin cycle does not require light
Why are the reactions of the Calvin cycle also called the light-independent reactions?
because the Calvin cycle does not require light
Why are reactions of the Calvin cycle termed light independent?
They do not require light to occur
Does the Calvin cycle Requires CO2?
The Calvin Cycle is a light-independent cycle, but it does not require darkness. although it can use light again it does not require it.
Why a toxin that inhibits an enzyme of the Calvin cycle will also inhibit the light reactions?
The light reactions require ADP and NADP+, which are not recycled from ATP and NADPH when the Calvin cycle stops
What is the differences between the light dependent reactions?
The Calvin cycle occurs at any time of the day, while the light dependent reactions require light. The calvin cycle produces glucose, while the light dependent reactions produce oxygen, ATP, and NADPH. The calvin cycle occurs because of the products of the light dependent reactions.
Why is possible for Calvin cycle to occur in the dark?
The Calvin cycle is called the dark cycle because it does not require light to proceed. Unlike light reactions, the Calvin cycle is a light-independent reaction, which means it can and will occur in the dark as well as the light.
What Light-independent reactions of the photosynthesis are also known as the?
The Calvin cycle does not require light, these reactions are also called the Light Independent reactions.
What is different between the Calvin cycle and light-dependent reactions?
Light dependent reactions take place in the thylakoid membrane. The Calvin Cycle takes place in the stroma. The light dependent reactions use light energy to make ATP and NADPH. The Calvin Cycle uses these to make CA3P and Co2.
What are the dark reactions of photosynethesis also known as?
It is known as the Calvin cycle or light independent cycle
Which photosynthetic will be least affected by shorter periods of daylight?
the Calvin cyclethe calvin cycle
What are other names for the Calvin cycle?
The Calvin Cycle is also known as the Calvin-Benson Cycle, light-independent reaction, or the C3 Cycle.
