Calvin Cycle Diagram Ap Bio. The calvin cycle diagram below shows the different stages of calvin cycle or c3 cycle that includes carbon fixation reduction and regeneration. The cycle is named for melvin calvin who used a radioactive isotope of carbon to trace the reactions.

Atp is used as an energy source and nadph as a reducing agent to add high energy electrons in order to synthesise the sugar. The calvin cycle builds carbohydrates from smaller molecules and is an energy consuming process. Recent studies with algal cells leaves and isolated chloroplasts have shown that dark reactions of photosynthesis are not completely independent of light.
