Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the significance of the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis? (2023)
  • Step 1: Understand that photosynthesis has two main parts: light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions.
  • Step 2: Know that light-independent reactions are also called the Calvin cycle.
  • Step 3: Recognize that these reactions do not require light directly to occur.
  • Step 4: Learn that the main purpose of the Calvin cycle is to take carbon dioxide from the air.
  • Step 5: Understand that the cycle converts carbon dioxide into organic molecules, like glucose, which plants use for energy.
  • Step 6: Realize that this process is important because it helps to store energy and provides food for the plant and other organisms.
