Question

During Calvin cycle the total number of $C{O}_2$, ATP and NADPH molecules utilised and glucose, ADP and NADP molecules generated is

• A. 31
• B. 36
• C. 61
• D. 67

Answer 1

The correct option is D 67

In Calvin cycle, we can see that about 6 molecules of carbon dioxide, 18 molecules of ATP, and about 12 molecules of NADPH are utilized and on the other side about 1 molecule of glucose, 18 molecules of ADP and 12 molecules of NADP are generated.

So, in total we get about, 6+18+12+1+18+12=67 molecules.

So, the correct option is '67'.
