PGAL is formed during the oxidative phase of _.
Correct answer: A. Calvin Cycle
- A. Calvin Cycle
- B. Glycolysis
- C. Oxidative Phosphorylation
- D. None of the above options are correct.
Explanation
PGA formed in the Carbon fixation of calvin cycle is reduced into phosphoglyceraldehyde. The products of light reaction i.e. NADPH and ATP used in this process. Each molecule of phosphoglyceric acid (PGA) receives energy from ATP and hydrogen from NADPH of light reaction, forming phosphoglyceraldehyde (PGAL) and water.
