Q

_- reactions take place in stroma

A

co2 fixations (co2 in; carbs out) (energy is transferred from atp to nadph molecules produced by light dep. rxn to chemical bonds on carbs)

17
Q

adp to atp

A

phosphorylation

18
Q

nadp+ t nadph

19
Q

atp to adp d

A

dephosphorylation

20
Q

nadph to nadp+

21
Q

fixation means

A

to make something usuable

22
Q

o2 in, co2 out

23
Q

co2 in, o2 out

24
Q

what is the electron transporter in photosyn

25
all photosystems are __
integral transmembrane proteins
26
photosystems are found where?
thylakoid membrane
27
how many types of photosystems; their names; and what they refer to
2; p700 (#1) and p680 (#2) [but p680 is before p700]; refer to long wavelengths
28
photosystem steps:
1. photon hits p680 2. p680 splits h2o into o2 and h+ 3. electrons from p680 go through etc to make atp 4. electrons then go to p700 5. a new photon hits p700 6. elctrons are excited (gain energy) and go to another etc 7. eletrons join with nadp+ to reduce it to nadph
29
products of light dependent rxn
nadph and atp
30
__ cycle has 3 names and doesn't take place in thylakoid lumen (happens in stroma instead (the fluid part) due to it's light independency
calvin cycle (calvin cycle, light independent rxn, carbon fixation)
31
light independent reactants
12 nadph and 18 atp
32
photosyn is an __ pathway (small-->big) - opp of cell resp (which is catabolic) (c and c)
anabolic (p and a)
