    SAMPLE LEARNER’S ACTIVITY SHEET (LAS)

    GENERAL BIOLOGY 1

    Name of Learner Rachel Anne F. Moreno


    Grade level and Section 11-Riemann
    Date December 06, 2021

    Activity 3: CALVIN CYCLE


    Learning Competency with code
    1. The learners describe the significant events of the Calvin Cycle (STEM_BIO11/12-IIa-j5)
    Learning Context (Brief discussion of the lesson, cite examples)
    Three Phases of Calvin Cycle:
    Carbon Fixation
    • Carbon fixation is a process of incorporating an inorganic carbon molecule, CO2, into an organic
    material.
    • In this phase, the CO2 molecule is attached to a five-carbon sugar molecule named ribulose
    biphosphate (RuBP) aided by an enzyme named rubisco or RuBP carboxylase. Rubisco is believed to be
    the most abundant protein in the chloroplast and maybe on Earth.
    • The resulting product, a six-carbon sugar, is extremely unstable and immediately splits in half. The
    split forms two molecules of a 3-phosphoglycerate (3-carbon).
    Reduction
    • A phosphate group (from ATP) is then attached to each 3-phosphoglycerate by an enzyme, forming
    1,3-phosphoglycerate.
    • NADPH swoops in and reduces 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate to G3P.
    • For every six G3Ps produced by the Calvin Cycle, five are recycled to regenerate three molecules of
    RuBP. Only one G3P leaves the cycle to be packaged for use by the cell.
    • It will take two molecules of G3P to make one molecule of glucose.
    •The ADP and NADP+ that are formed during the Calvin Cycle will be transported back to the thylakoid
    membrane and will enter the light reactions. Here, they will be ‘recharged’ with energy and become
    ATP and NADPH.
    Regeneration of RuBP
    • Five molecules of G3P undergo a series of complex enzymatic reactions to form three molecules of
    RuBP. This costs the cell another three molecules of AT, but also provides another set of RuBP to
    continue the cycle. What happens to G3P after its release from the cycle?
    • Two G3Ps can combine together to form either glucose or fructose which are both six-carbon sugar.
    • Glucose and fructose can be combined to form sucrose.
    • Glucose can be connected in chains to form starch.
    • G3Ps can also be used in lipid and protein synthesis. The cost of making carbohydrate: To make one
    molecule of G3P, the chloroplast needs:
    • 3 molecules of CO2 • 9 molecules of ATP • 6 molecules of NADPH
