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.

[@nicoleannetolentino304]

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

[@charlietheteacher7795]

This is clearly designed - wow! We have an amazing Creator to make such a precise, efficient cycle.

[@angelalabaniego6912]

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.

I learned well in this video its proceeding starting raw materials. Starting with CO2 and RuBP, next are the PGAs, enter ATP which delivers energy and the NADPH attches hydrogen and produces G3p. This is followed by the production of glucose or sugar. Sugar is important in our daily lives because it provides energy to our body.

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

This short video lecture taught me a lot about how the Calvin Cycle works, and everything from the animation to the manner it was delivered made the subject more intriguing and understandable. This lesson taught me about the second stage of photosynthesis, also known as the "Calvin Cycle," which is the emphasis of the lesson. The light-independent reaction is another name for the Calvin Cycle. Calvin Cycle, as described in the video, functions as a sustainable production line with three primary stages: carbon fixation, reduction, and regeneration. CO2 and RuBP are the two raw materials that are utilized. The enzyme binds one carbon molecule to RuBP, resulting in six carbon sequences. This sequence's three carbons are divided into two phosphoglycerates, or PGAS. ATP then generates energy as NADPH attaches hydrogen to each PGA and converts it to G3P. It also showed how long the cycle can last if enough carbon is present. The cycle produces 36 carbons, 6 of which are used to produce glucose while the remaining 30 are returned to the cycle as starting material. Every living organism on Earth, especially plants, is reliant on the Calvin cycle to produce energy and food, as I've discovered. Furthermore, I not only learned about the process, but I also recognized its importance in our daily life, since it provides us with general and other essentials by utilizing minerals present on Earth.

[@francinenicoledupan8001]

This video was very informative and made the Calvin cycle much more understandable. The two raw materials employed in this method are CO2 and RuBP. The enzyme binds one carbon molecule to RuBP, resulting in six carbon sequences. In this sequence, each of the three carbons is broken into two phosphoglycerates, or PGAs. ATP then provides energy as NADPH attaches hydrogen to each PGA and converts it to G3P. A rubisco initiator, which welds one carbon atom from a carbon dioxide to the RuBP chain, is then required to form an initial six-carbon sequence. To summarize, the Calvin cycle is important for the energy and food generation of plants.

In this lesson, I learned all about the second stage of photosynthesis known as the Calvin cycle. The Calvin cycle is also known as the light-independent reaction as the energy needed for the reactions comes from ATP and NADPH that are made at the light-dependent reaction, before the Calvin cycle. The lesson discusses the overview of the Calvin cycle, it is consist of three turns: the carbon fixation, reduction, and regeneration of the starting molecule. At the carbon fixation, each of the three molecules of CO2 combines with each three RuBP which splits making 6 molecules of 3-PGA. At the next turn, 6 ATP and 6 NADPH are used to convert the 6 molecules of 3-PGA into 6 molecules of G3P. At the last turn, one G3P is transferred outside of the cycle to be made as glucose while the remaining 5 molecules of G3P are used to regenerate 3 RuBP acceptor molecules. In addition, 2 molecules of G3P are needed to make glucose so the Calvin cycle must occur twice to make a molecule of glucose.

best one,Thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu,I have Biology exam today :)

[@rawandsaad2001]

I'm gonna thank you for the rest of my life you made it soo easily to understand it better than my biology book .and that was really helpful.

Awesome. Not a April fools joke video!

The most precise, effective and easy video...Love from Pakistan

complected cycle i have to watch 10 times however thank you very much of explanation

I learned from this video is about Calvin cycle and how it works, it show me the detailed part of the Photosynthesis that i actually now understand. I also learned the 3 stages of the process of carbons and its description. I also learned ATP and NADPH are used to fox the carbon into sugar. Watching this was the easiest way to learn more about the calvin cycle. And this is a big help to understand the Photosynthesis and how it works with the second step.

It's nice to remember this stuff! 🍃🌞💧
