Plants get Carbon dioxide from the air. The leaves on the plant are held up in the air by the leaf stalk so that they can be exposed to as much air as possible. The carbon dioxide then diffuses into the leaves where it is combined with hydrogen during the reduction reaction.

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 ~
