Answer:

Photosynthesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Atmospheric carbon dioxide is converted to glucose during the Calvin-Benson cycle. This requires the overall reduction of CO2, using the electrons available from the oxidation of NADPH. Thus the dark reactions represent a redox pathway. NADPH is oxidized to NADP+ and CO2 is reduced to glucose.
