Please refer to the following art to answer the following questions.

-The Calvin cycle is sometimes called the "dark reactions." Could it take place if a plant were grown in the dark continuously?
A)No,because plants cannot take in CO₂ without sunlight.
B)No,because sunlight is needed to split water to provide NADH.
C)Yes,because taking in carbon dioxide,the only outside input to the Calvin cycle,does not need sunlight.
D)Yes,because plants have stored materials in their roots which can provide what the Calvin cycle needs.
