Answer:

Rubisco.

Step-by-step explanation:

Las reacciones del ciclo de Calvin añaden carbono (del dióxido de carbono en la atmósfera) a una molécula sencilla de cinco carbonos llamada RuBP. Estas reacciones usan la energía química de la NADPH y del ATP que se producen en las reacciones luminosas. El producto final del ciclo de Calvin es la glucosa.
