Solution

The correct option is B Calvin
Melvin Calvin received Nobel Prize for working out the early carbon pathway of photosynthesis. It was shown that the carbon first binds to a molecule of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP), then immediately splits, forming two molecules of phosphoglycerate (PGA).
So, the correct answer is 'Calvin'
