For every three molecules of CO2 that enter the Calvin cycle, how many molecules of Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) are considered the net output?
Q1. For every three molecules of CO2 that enter the Calvin cycle, how many molecules of Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) are considered the net output?
Answer: 1 G3P
Explanation: Three CO2 molecules produce six G3P, but only one is the net gain. Option B is incorrect as five G3P must regenerate RuBP.
