Question

During fixation of one molecule of CO2 by C3plants, number of ATP and NADPH2 required are (A)  3 ATP and 2 NADPH2 (B)  5 ATP and 2 NADPH2 (C)  12 ATP and 12 NADPH2 (D)  2 ATP and 3 NADPH2

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

For every CO 2 molecule entering the Calvin cycle, 3 molecules of ATP and 2 molecules of NADPH are required. To make one molecule of glucose, 6 turns of the cycles are required (6 × 3 A T P = 1 8 A T P and 6 × 2 N A D P H = 1 2 N A D P H ) beginarrayll text In text Out text 6 CO 2 text 1 glucose text 18ATP text 18ADP endarray 12NADPH 12NADP, So, the correct answer is ' 3ATP and 2NADPH2'
