Bio Chapter 8 Deck 4 (Slides 15-17) Flashcards
Electron Carriers transport H.E. (high energy electrons) to other _______ during photosynthesis
molecules
NADP+ + 2e + H+ —> NADPH
What does “2e” mean
The NADP+ picks up 2 H.E. electrons from chlorophyll
Light dependent reactions use H2O and Light to produce ____, ______, and ______
O2
ATP
NADPH
In the first step of Light Dependent reactions, the Chlorophyll in ________ __ absorbs light. This produces _____ ______ Electrons.
PHOTOSYSTEM 2
HIGH ENERGY electrons
Light-independent reactions take place in the ___ of choloroplast
Stroma
NADP+ + 2e + H+ —> NADPH
What does “NADPH” mean?
This is the HIGH energy form that carries H.E. electrons to other molecules
HIGH ENERGY ELECTRONS need special carriers called ______ ________
Electron Carriers
NADP+ + 2e + H+ —> NADPH
Is NADP+ low or high energy form?
LOW energy
Light-dependent reactions are also called the ___ Reactions
