Question

In $C_3$ cycle, the fixation of every $C{O}_2$ molecule, the reduction and regeneration steps require

• A. 3 ATP and $2NADP{H}_2$
• B. 2 ATP and $2NADP{H}_2$
• C. 2 ATP and $3NADP{H}_2$
• D. 3 ATP and $3NADP{H}_2$

Answer 1

The correct option is A 3 ATP and $2NADP{H}_2$

In $C_3$ cycle, in the fixation of every $C{O}_2$ molecule the reduction and regeneration step require 3ATP and $2NADP{H}_2$
