Question

fill in the blank question
one turn of the calvin cycle adds one carbon atom, therefore it takes □ turns to produce one glucose molecule.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall glucose's carbon atoms

Glucose ($\ce{C6H12O6}$) has 6 carbon atoms.

Step2: Calculate Calvin cycle turns

Each Calvin cycle turn adds 1 carbon. To get 6 carbons (for 1 glucose), we need $6$ turns.

Answer:

6
