- Melvin Calvin and Andrew Benson determined the steps in the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis by exposing the green alga Chlorella to CO2 labeled with the radioisotope carbon 14. By looking at which compounds the C14 ended up in, they were able to identify all intermediates in this cyclic pathway. Why did they predict correctly that the same set of intermediates would be formed in the light reaction in land plants?arrow_forwardDescribe the pathway of energy in light-dependent reactions.arrow_forwardDescribe the three steps of the Calvin cycle and whenATP and/or NADPH is needed.arrow_forward
- Briefly explain the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis: where does this take place, what are the reactants and what is produced?arrow_forwardOutline the three phases of the Calvin cycle.arrow_forwardA culture of the single celled organism Chlamydomonas is actively carrying out photosynthesis in the presence of light and CO2. If you turned off the light, how would you expect the amounts of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate and 3-phosphoglycerate to change over the next minute? How about if you left the light on and removed the CO2? Please answer these questions with specific references to the Calvin cycle.arrow_forward
