Dominique is a chemist and has just discovered a new drug that interferes with the Calvin Cycle of photosynthesis. They believe this drug is going to be awesome because it will allow the light reactions to run forever, while just stalling out the Calvin cycle. Terry disagrees, saying that any drug that stalls Calvin will ultimately inhibit the light reactions, too. Who is correct and why

Respuesta :

Answer:

Terry is right.

Explanation:

Any drug that stalls Calvin will ultimately inhibit the light reactions because the Calvin cycle and light reactions are interconnected. The light reactions provide CO2 to the Calvin cycle while on the other hand, the Calvin cycle provides sugars to light reaction in order to produce ATP molecules from it so if Calvin cycle stops no sugar is provided to the light reaction for generating ATP molecules.
