What Are Some Processes in Plants That Require Atp

Calvin cycle

The Calvin cycle, Calvin–Benson–Bassham (CBB) cycle, reductive pentose phosphate cycle (RPP cycle) or C3 cycle is a series of biochemical redox reactions that take place in the stroma of chloroplast in photosynthetic organisms. … This set of reactions is also called carbon fixation.

Which processes in plants require ATP?

ATP is the energy currency of a cell. Plants require energy in various activities such as active transport of substances and ions, during the Calvin cycle in photosynthesis, protein synthesis, intracellular signalling, DNA and RNA synthesis, etc.

What is ATP used for in plants?

Growth and development of plants is ultimately driven by light energy captured through photosynthesis. ATP acts as universal cellular energy cofactor fuelling all life processes, including gene expression, metabolism, and transport.
