Question
which part of the chloroplasts are the calvin cycle enzymes located?
multiple choice
grana
envelope
cristae
stroma
thylakoids
The Calvin - cycle, also known as the light - independent reactions of photosynthesis, occurs in the stroma of chloroplasts. The stroma is the fluid - filled space surrounding the thylakoid membranes. Enzymes involved in the Calvin cycle are located here to carry out the fixation of carbon dioxide and the synthesis of carbohydrates. Grana are stacks of thylakoids involved in light - dependent reactions, the envelope is the outer membrane of the chloroplast, cristae are found in mitochondria (not chloroplasts), and thylakoids are involved in light - dependent reactions.
