What is the function of NADPH and ATP in the Calvin cycle?

• they provide the energy required to build high-energy sugars

• they provide energy to create needed oxygen

• they provide energy to expel CO₂

• they provide enough energy for it to be stored for long periods

How do CAM plants photosynthesize under bright hot conditions without drying out?

• by allowing small openings in their leaves to admit more carbon dioxide

• by lowering the amount of ATP required for the Calvin cycle

• by using the C4 pathway

• by sealing their leaves against water loss & trapping carbon as organiz acids

The reactants of photosynthesis are

• CO₂ & H₂O

• CO₂ & H₂

• C & O₂

• C & H₂
