Solution

The correct option is B 1
Carboxylation reaction is the first reaction in Calvin cycle. The enzyme RuBisCO catalyses the carboxylation of ribulose-1,5-biphosphate and produces 3-PGA. The carbon dioxide is fixed by the enzyme and then the carboxylation reaction is carried out.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
