Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which process occurs during the dark reactions of photosynthesis?
Correct Answer: Carbon fixation
  • Step 1: Understand that photosynthesis has two main stages: light reactions and dark reactions.
  • Step 2: Know that dark reactions do not require light to occur.
  • Step 3: Learn that the dark reactions are also called the Calvin cycle.
  • Step 4: Recognize that the main process in the dark reactions is carbon fixation.
  • Step 5: Carbon fixation means taking carbon dioxide from the air and turning it into a form that plants can use to make food.
