In the Calvin cycle, is GP reduced by reduced nadp and phosphorylated by ATP?

yes it is

Technically , GP is oxidised and NADP is reduced

Is it GP or TP that is phosphorylated? I can't remember which molecule gets Pi

No, reduced NADP isn't reduced again in the Calvin Cycle. The point is you regenerate NADP so then NADP goes back to the light dependent stage.
Hence GP is reduced to TP, hence reduced NADP is simultaneously oxidised, to NADP.

I don't get that because reduced NADP is reoxidised to NADP so therefore GP is reduced right? or am i wrong :s

Oh i thought you made reduced NADPH in calvin but it turns out NADP is made, my bad.

any tips to make prevent falling asleep before the exam

Btw its Reduced NADP or NADPH :smile:

Can someone answer this pleaseeeee.


@t_sparrow
There is nothing on respirometers in the spec and there havent been any questions on it. They shouldnt ask it without giving background info.

EDIT: Dont know if someone answered already, didnt refresh the page lol

you know what ocr is like they come up with random stuff sometimes but thank you haha, I actually came across it in a unit4 pack so not sure if it was an old question

is the role of the distal conveluted tubule just to adjust urine levels before entering the collecting duct? because compared to the PCT it doesn't seem that important
has everyone memorised the structure of NAD?

I think it does this by reabsorbing water

I dont think they will ask us anyway never seen it before.

thanks!!! gd luck for tomorrow
