The Calvin cycle proceeds in three stages
(1) Reduction, during which carbohydrate is formed at the expense of the photochemically made ATP and NADPH
(2) Regeneration, during which the carbon dioxide acceptor ribulose-1,5-biphosphate is formed
(3) Carboxylation during which carbon dioxide combines with ribulose-1,5-biphoshate is formed

A

`3-1-2`

B

`3-2`

C

`1-2-3`

The Calvin cycle proceed in three stages: 1. Radiation, during which carbohydrate is formed at the expense of the Photochemically made ATP and NADPH. 2. Regeneration, during which the carbon dioxide acceptor ribulose-1,5-biphate is formed. 3. Carboxylation, during which the carbon dioxide combines with ribulose-1,5-biphosphate.

Assertion: Photochemical smog is oxidising in nature. Reason: Photochemical smog contains NO_(2) and O_(3) which are formed during the sequence of reactions.
