Question 3 • PA Human Anatomy & Physiology A 2026-2027 SMITH IC

Which compound is produced during regeneration?

Answer
A
PGA
B
G3P
C
RuBP
D
rubisco

Explanation

During the Calvin cycle’s regeneration stage, carbon compounds are rearranged to form RuBP, the molecule that accepts CO₂ in the next cycle. Therefore, the compound produced during regeneration is RuBP. PGA and G3P are formed in earlier stages, while rubisco is an enzyme, not a compound produced by the cycle.
