Answer:

In plants, carbon dioxide (CO2) enters the chloroplast through the stomata and diffuses into the stroma of the chloroplast—the site of the Calvin cycle reactions where sugar is synthesized. ... This type of reaction is called a reduction reaction, because it involves the gain of electrons.
