RuBP regeneration in the Calvin cycle means that
A.most G3P is recycled so the cycle continues
B.all G3P leaves as sugar
C.CO₂ is released back to the air
D.NADPH is regenerated from NADP⁺
Explanation
Core Concept
Five of every six G3P molecules are rearranged back into RuBP using ATP; only the sixth exits as product. Regeneration keeps the cycle spinning.
Correct Answer
Amost G3P is recycled so the cycle continues
