c. Reduction Carboxylation is the first step within the Calvin cycle where a carbon dioxide is bonded to a 5-carbon sugar called RuPB. Reduction is the second step of the Calvin cycle where NADPH is needed. NADPH is a reducing agent that is used in the Calvin cycle that transfers electrons that allow carbohydrates to be synthesized from carbon dioxide. Reduction is the addition of an electron to something. In this step, NADPH transfers two electrons and one proton to the phosphorylated compound which releases one phosphate group to form the triose phosphates.
