Where in a plant cell does the Calvin Cycle take place?
A
Thylakoid membrane
B
Nucleus
C
Cytoplasm
D
Stroma of the chloroplast
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that the Calvin Cycle is a part of photosynthesis, which occurs in plant cells.
Recall that photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts of plant cells.
Differentiate between the two main stages of photosynthesis: the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin Cycle (light-independent reactions).
Identify that the light-dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid membranes, while the Calvin Cycle occurs in a different part of the chloroplast.
Recognize that the Calvin Cycle takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast, which is the fluid-filled space surrounding the thylakoids.
