Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rubisco catalyzes the reaction between ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate and carbon dioxide, resulting in two molecules of 3-phosphoglycerate, not glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is a product of subsequent reactions in the Calvin cycle, not directly from rubisco activity.
