Question

which of the following is an enzyme which forms a six-carbon compound when combined with carbon dioxide and rubp?
○ atp
○ glucose
○ rubisco
○ nadph

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• ATP: A energy - carrying molecule, not an enzyme.
• Glucose: A sugar molecule, not an enzyme.
• RuBisCo (Ribulose - 1,5 - bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase): It is an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction between \(CO_2\) and RuBP (ribulose - 1,5 - bisphosphate) to form a six - carbon compound during the Calvin cycle of photosynthesis.
• NADPH: A reducing agent, not an enzyme.

Answer:

C. RuBisCo
