After that, he and his group were finally able to prove that sugar, the finished product of the process, is built up in six stages, each of which adds a single carbon atom. Now, thanks to Calvin, the chemical action of chlorophyll, on which all life on earth ultimately depends, is fairly well understood, but humans cannot yet duplicate the process in the laboratory.
