Photosynthesis
AP Biology
The Equation
6CO2 + 6H2O + light C6H12O6 + 6O2
Chlorophyll required
Water both consumed & produced
Chloroplasts

Calvin Cycle
Calvin Cycle
Rubisco fixes 6CO2 to 6RuBP (5-C)
RuBP = ribulose biphosphate
3PG (3-C) produced
3PG =
3-phosphoglycerate
Calvin Cycle
3PG converted to 12 G3P
G3P = glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate
12 ATP used 12 NADPH used
Calvin Cycle
2 G3P exit cycle & used to make glucose
Glucose used to make sugars & other carbohydrates
Calvin Cycle
10 G3P (3-C) used to make 6 RuBP (5-C)
6 ATP used
