A.
Cytoplasm
B.
Mitochondria
C.
Glyoxysomes
D.
Chloroplasts
Answer

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
Calvin cycle occurs in Chloroplasts.
The Calvin cycle of photosynthesis is a series of chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and hydrogen-carrier compounds into glucose.
In plants, these reactions occur in the stroma, the fluid-filled region of a chloroplast outside the thylakoid membranes. These reactions take the products (ATP and NADPH) of light-dependent reactions and perform further chemical processes on them.
