since the synthesis of glycerol from reserve carbohydrate in the absence of co ( 2 ) requires only 0.5 atp/nadph , whereas photosynthesis requires at least 1.3 atp/nadph , it is concluded that the atp/2e ( - ) ratio coupled to nadp reduction in dunaliella is lower than required for co ( 2 ) fixation .
