  • Where do the dark reactions take place?
    stroma
  • Cam plants have a different adaptation to what climate?
    hot and dry
  • To bring in nonliving carbon (CO2) and use it to make organic compounds is a process called _______________.
    Carbon fixation
  • What does carbon combine with at the start of the Calvin cycle?
    RuBP
  • On hot, dry days, C3 plants shift into this less efficient process because O2 levels rise.
    Photorespiration
  • The enzyme responsible for Carbon Fixation in C3 Photosynthesis is.
    RUBISCO- Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase
  • Oxygen becomes attached to RuBP during...
    Photorespiration
  • The Calvin Cycle can happen during the day or night?
    Day
