NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2022

Solution:

The Calvin pathway occurs in all the mesophyll cells of the C3 plants. In the C4 plants, it does not take place in the mesophyll cells but does so only in the bundle sheath cells. The Calvin cycle, light-independent reactions, bio synthetic phase, dark reactions, or photosynthetic carbon reduction cycle of photosynthesis are the chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and other compounds into glucose.
