Calvin Cycle Uses ATP and NADPH to convert CO 2 to carbohydrates 2 spins around this cycle makes 1 molecule of glucose!
Photosynthesis - Two Parts LIGHT REACTIONS: Make ATP and NADPH CALVIN CYCLE: Uses the ATP and NADPH to make carbohydrates 1. Light absorption (by plant pigments) 2. Electron transport chain (making NADPH) 3. Chemiosmosis (making ATP) 4. Calvin Cycle (making carbohydrates)

What would happen to our world if plants went extinct? 1. Plants are autotrophs. They produce food for themselves and other organisms. 2. Plants use photosynthesis to regulate Earth’s environment.
