A hearty bowl of cereal gives you the energy to start your day, but how exactly did that energy make its way into your bowl? It all begins with photosynthesis, the process that converts the air we breathe into energizing glucose. Cathy Symington details the highly efficient second phase of photosynthesis -- called the Calvin cycle -- which converts carbon dioxide into sugar with some clever mix-and-match math.
Lesson by Cathy Symington, animation by Flaming Medusa Studios Inc.

The Calvin cycle is explained in this video in a very basic but informative manner. This video taught me a lot about its purpose, the stages involved in producing glucose and oxygen, and the raw materials required for this process. I also learned that this cycle produces energy throughout your life, making it an important part of our daily lives. The two raw materials that are used in this procedure are CO2 and RuBP. The enzyme binds one carbon molecule to RuBP, giving rise to six carbon sequences. In this sequence, each of the three carbons is broken into two phosphoglycerates, or PGAs. ATP then generates electricity by attaching hydrogen to each PGA and converting it to G3P. The cycle includes 36 carbon atoms, of which 30 carbon (10 G3Ps) are used to recreate the whole process while the remaining 6 are used to make glucose. This shows that this cycle pretty much sustains itself by reusing the 30 carbon as a starting material to keep the cycle working.

That's really cool and I respect your work for giving an education to the students, but you're not teaching something as complex as the Calvin cycle to 6th graders are you? Perhaps the grading system is different from where you are, but I'd say things like these should be approached by grade 10 or 11 only.

I like how the video represents the process of the second step of photosyntesis, the Calvin Cycle, in a factory-like setting. It makes the process more relatable to the audience, as they are familiar with what happens inside a factory. It explains the processes that happen in the chloroplast and how they turn the carbon gas into a six-carbon solid like glucose. While I've heard the terms mentioned once or many times before, they are still very profound to me. This makes it difficult to remember and easily forgotten if not properly discussed. Now onto the processes involved. The video shows the steps nicely in a way that a learner who is studying photosynthesis for the first time can easily understand the lesson. The thing that I really learned, and I think sticks to me the most, is that it is efficient that the Calvin Cycle and other cycles produce and reuse the elements they need in the process. As stated by the video, if these processes are linear, it will require more time and work to manufacture the things nature relies upon.

This video helped me a lot to understand the Calvin Cycle. I had a bit of hard time of understanding the middle part but as I kept on watching I came to understand it too. I realized that the photosynthesis is a actually a hard, complex, busy and have a repeated Cycle which helps us gain energy that we need. The enzyme Rubisco starts the cycle by receiving Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and 5 carbons (RuBP) which results as 6 carbons. The 6 carbons needs to split into 2 chains which contains 3 carbons each or known as PGAs. ATP sends energy to PGAs and NaDPH send hydrogen each PGAs which makes it 3 Phosphates or G3Ps. G3Ps will now form the Glucose as it needs 6 carbons that the G3Ps has but there is not only have one production place. There are 5 more which gives much more RuBP that they can create G3Ps for the Glucose and that is how we receive our energy through Calvin Cycle

Not quite. The other half to photosynthesis is using light itself as a power source to power the Calvin cycle. The important bits of the light-dependent reactions are as follows: chlorophyll is used to absorb light energy which then splits water into oxygen gas and hydrogen (the oxygen leaving to enter the atmosphere). The hydrogen ions then get attached to ADP and NADP+ which are transformed into their energized forms, ATP and NADPH. The energy in these molecules are then used to power the Calvin cycle like shown in the video. If you can't tell, I'm a bit nervous for my AP Bio test I have next week lol

I also learned that Calvin Cycle works like a sustainable production line and it means that it reused materials from the cycle. In this cycle, it produces the exact number of elements and precise processes to keep it working endlessly. I also learned that calvin cycle is required for all living things on the earth. It is a cycle that just revolves in our life.

I also discovered that the Calvin cycle is necessary for all living things on the planet. It is also a component of photosynthesis, which is the process by which plants and other autotrophs convert sunlight and carbon dioxide into food. On the other hand, they would be unable to exist in the lack of food and energy.

I've learned a lot in this video. The Calvin cycle is a process that plants and algae use to convert carbon dioxide from the air into sugar, which autotrophs require to grow. The Calvin cycle is essential to all living things on Earth. The Calvin cycle provides energy and food to plants. This video helped me understand the calvin cycle far better than any other, and I appreciate how you used a factory setting to explain what happens in each step!

When you have internet, there is absolutely no reason for being confused and left with half knowledge and too many questions. You can google your every doubts. Google will never be tired of answering your questions or will never judge you. You just need to have the curiosity and dedication to amalgamate information from different websites, thats it.

Just a note: The oxygen atoms don't implode into the glucose, they're rereleased into the air. Great vid though!

they actually do because the first molecule that is formed glycerate 3 phosphate (PGA) is an acid and therefore the COO ion which comes from the CO2 is needed .

Thankyou, I learned a lot about how Calvin Cycle works. It has 4 main steps 1.) Carbon Fixation 2.) Reduction Phase 3.) Carbohydrate Formation 4.) Regeneration phase. Also in the video also mention the 2 steps in Photosynthesis, The energy form by the sun, and Calvin Cycle. I also learn it's function. Calvin Cycle is important in our environment & other species. This video lesson is very knowledgeable and informative.

This short video lecture taught me a lot about how the Calvin cycle works and everything from the animation to how it is delivered makes the subject more engaging and understandable. This lesson taught me about the second stage of photosynthesis, also known as the "Calvin cycle", which is the focus of the lesson. The Calvin cycle, as depicted in the video, works as a sustainable production chain with three main stages: carbon absorption, reduction and regeneration. molecules in RuBP, resulting in six carbons The three carbons of this sequence NADPH attaches hydrogen to each PGA carbon, 6 of which are used to produce Every living thing on Earth, especially plants, depends on the Calvin cycle for energy and food, as I have discovered.

In this topic I've learned what is Calvin cycle and how it works. Calvin cycle is very important not just for me but for all living things. It is the process were the algae and other plants use to make carbon dioxide from air to glucose (sugar). It is also gave energy to our food example in the video. This lesson give me the idea on what is Calvin cycle and I learned a lot.
