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?

Question

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? (A) 10 cyclic and 4 non-cyclic photophosphorylation (B) 6 cyclic and 6 non-cyclic photophosphorylation (C) 2 cyclic and 4 non-cyclic photophosphorylation (D) 8 cyclic and 1 non-cyclic photophosphorylation

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

2 cyclic and 4 non-cyclic photophosphorylation

8 cyclic and 1 non-cyclic photophosphorylation

Six cyclic photophosphorylation produce 12 ATPs, 6 non-cyclic photophosphorylation produce 6 ATP and 12 NADPH2​ To produce one molecule of glucose by the Calvin cycle, we require 18 ATP and 12 NADPH2​
