Chapter 20, Problem 32P

Summary Introduction

To explain: The reason that why the concentration of two regulators that is $\text{3-phosphoglycerate}$ and ${\text{P}}_{\text{i}}$.reflect the rate of photosynthesis.

Introduction:

Calvin’s cycle results in the production of triose phosphate which is stored temporarily in chloroplast and gets converted into sucrose in cytosol of plant. This sucrose is then transported to all nonphotosynthetic parts of plant. Thus, the formation of triose phosphate and its conversion into sucrose is tightly regulated and coordinated with rate of a carbon fixation.
