The correct answer is:
A-RuBP, B-PGA, C-Triose phosphate
A - RuBP
RuBP (Ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate) accepts atmospheric in the presence of the enzyme RuBP carboxylase (RuBisCO) and forms a 6-carbon unstable compound which soon splits into two molecules of a 3-carbon compound called PGA (phosphoglyceric acid)
B - PGA
The phosphoglyceric acid molecules are first phosphorylated by using ATP to produce 1, 3-diphosphoglyceric acid.
C - Some molecules of 3 PGAL are converted into its isomer dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) in presence of enzyme triose phosphate isomerase.
