Solution

The correct option is A Unicellular green algae by Calvin
The elucidation of the Calvin cycle was the result of a series of elegant experiments by Melvin Calvin and his colleagues in the 1950s, for which a Nobel prize was awarded in 1961. They used suspensions of the unicellular eukaryotic green algae Chlorella to trace the path of carbon.
