Question

which type of plant can utilize the calvin cycle? multiple choice c4 plants c3 plants cam plants c3, c4, and cam plants

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The Calvin - cycle is the light - independent reaction in photosynthesis. C3, C4, and CAM plants all use the Calvin cycle to fix carbon dioxide and produce organic molecules. C3 plants directly use the Calvin cycle in their mesophyll cells. C4 plants separate the initial carbon fixation and the Calvin cycle in different cell types (mesophyll and bundle - sheath cells). CAM plants open their stomata at night for carbon fixation and then use the Calvin cycle during the day.

Answer:

D. C3, C4, and CAM plants
