Answer

Where in the chloroplast does the Calvin cycle take place?
In the stroma.
Why: the light reactions happen on the thylakoid membranes, and the ATP and NADPH they make are used in the fluid around them.

Questions, answered.
What can I give Cardly?
Paste your notes, add up to ten PDFs, or both at once. Slides, handouts, textbook chapters and scanned pages all work, and Cardly writes in the language of your notes. Keep your PDFs in Your files to make more decks and quizzes from them later.
Is Cardly free?
Yes. The free plan gives you 10 AI decks or quizzes a month with up to 20 cards or questions each, and keeps everything you make. The daily review, hard-card review, your streak and stats, share links and a plan for your next exam are all free. Decks and quizzes you write yourself never use a generation.
Pro is $5 a month, or $40 a year, with no monthly limit, up to 80 cards or questions each, plans for up to 10 exams and every Pro feature. You can cancel any time from your account.
How does the daily review work?
Rate each card after you flip it. Hard cards come back the next day and the ones you know after longer and longer gaps, so each day's review only asks for what you are about to forget. It is free on every plan.
Add an exam date and Cardly paces your decks so every card is started by the day before, and offers a practice quiz from your files at the end. Free plans for one exam at a time, Pro for up to 10.
Can I trust the answers?
Cardly writes every card and question from the material you give it, and most answers come with a short reason and the page or slide they came from, so you can check. You can edit anything.
Does it work with Anki?
Yes. Export any deck as a text file or in a format Anki imports, or export all your decks at once.
Is there an app?
Apps for iPhone and Android are coming soon to the App Store and Google Play, with the same account. Until then, Cardly works in the browser on any phone, tablet or computer.
What happens to my notes?
Your notes are only used to make your cards and questions, and are not stored. A PDF is kept only if you save it to Your files (10 on the free plan, 1 GB with Pro), and you can delete it any time. What Cardly makes is saved to your account, and you can delete your account and everything in it at any time.
