    Calvin-Benson Cycle

    The Calvin-Benson cycle is a fundamental process in photosynthesis, the metabolic pathway by which autotrophs, such as plants, algae, and some bacteria, convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose. This cycle takes place in the chloroplasts of these organisms and is responsible for fixing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere into…
