Q. How many cycles of cyclic and non-cyclic photophosphorylation would be required in order to generate enough energy for the production of one glucose molecule?

Solution:

Six cyclic photophosphorylation produce 12 ATPs, 6 non-cyclic photophosphorylation produce 6 ATP and 12 $N A D P H_{2}$
To produce one molecule of glucose by the Calvin cycle, we require 18 ATP and 12 $N A D P H_{2}$
