The chloroplast of plant cells is a specialized organelle that carries out the two reactions that perform photosynthesis. These reactions require enzymes like most other reactions in the cell. Identify the location within the plant cell where you would expect to find enzymes actively involved in the light-independent reactions, or Calvin cycle, of photosynthesis.(1 point)

Question

Responses

the inside of the thylakoid sac of the chloroplast

the stroma of the chloroplast

Answer 1

The enzymes actively involved in the light-independent reactions, or Calvin cycle, of photosynthesis are found in the stroma of the chloroplast.
