    • 2 Pages

    The Calvin Cycle Plants use energy from the sun in tiny energy factories called chloroplasts. Using chlorophyll in the process of photosynthesis‚ they convert the sun’s energy into storable form in ordered sugar molecules such as glucose. In this way‚ carbon dioxide from the air and water from the soil in a more disordered state are combined to form the more ordered sugar molecules. Carbon dioxide is captured in a cycle of reactions known as the Calvin cycle or the Calvin-Benson cycle after its

    Oxygen cycle From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation‚ search The oxygen cycle. The Oxygen cycle is the biogeochemical cycle that describes the movement of oxygen within its three main reservoirs: the atmosphere (air)‚ the total content of biological matter within the biosphere (the global sum of all ecosystems)‚ and the lithosphere (Earth ’s crust). Failures in the oxygen cycle within the hydrosphere (the combined mass of water found on‚ under‚ and over the surface of a planet)

    KREBS CYCLE It refers to a complex series of chemical reactions that produce carbon dioxide and Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)‚ a compound rich in energy. The cycle occurs by essentially linking two carbon coenzyme with carbon compounds; the created compound then goes through a series of changes that produce energy. This cycle occurs in all cells that utilize oxygen as part of their respiration process. It occurs in the matrix of the mitochondria in the presence of CO2.Pyruvic acid diffuses from
