Photosynthesis Problem Set 2

The objectives for this problem set are to review the location and overall reactions of carbohydrate biosynthesis during photosynthesis, including RUBISCO, and to understand the difference between C3 and C4 plant leaf anatomy and pathways for carbohydrate biosynthesis.

Instructions: The following problems have multiple choice answers. Correct answers are reinforced with a brief explanation. Incorrect answers are linked to tutorials to help solve the problem.
  1. Calvin experiment
  2. Calvin cycle reactions
  3. Equation for dark reaction
  4. Calvin cycle experiment
  5. Basic equation of photosynthesis
  6. Dark reactions
  7. Products of the dark reactions
  8. C4 plants
  9. C4 photosynthesis
