Q

photosystem 2

A

Photosystems are pigments embedded in proteins in the thlyakoid membrane, in system two, energy is passed to chlorphyll a and is excited then leaves chlorophyll a to the primary electron receptor then donates electrons to electon transport chain
as electrons move they lose energy

Q

C4 plants

A

Plants in hot dry climates, fix c through the c4 pathway, stomata partially closed during hittest part of the day, prevent water loss, enzyme fix CO2 into 4c compounds, calvin cycle ensues even when co2 levelis low, o2 level high—-converts CO2 into C4. Keeps stomata partially closed to keep water in.

Q

CAM plants

A

SOME plants in hot dry climates c fixation at night, minimize water loss; used by plants in hot climates. Process done at night.

Q

Light reactions

A

Light energy-> chemical energy atp nadph

occur in thylakoid membrane

20
Q

Calvin cycle

A

Chemical energy atp nadph -> organic compounds

occurs in stroma

21
Q

Equation of photosynthesis

A

6co2+ 6h2o _light energy -> c6h12o6 + 6o2

22
Q

Capturing light energy

A
Chloroplast light reactions
Plants, bacteria, algae
Pigments (chlorophyll a & b)
White light - all colors visible spectrum
Pigments either absorb or reflect
23
Q

Chloroplast pigments are where

A

Locate in membranes of thylakoid

24
Q

Examples of chloroplast pigments

A

Chlorophylls and carotenoids; pigments in proteins are chlorophyll

25
Replacing electrons in ps2
Ps2 splitting of water molecules, oxygen diffuses out, h+ remain, electron to etc
26
Replacing electrons in ps1
Electrons from ps2 to ps1
27
Light reactions
H2o split, ps2, ps1, atp synthesis (adp plus phosphate)
28
Making atp
Chemiosmosis, movement of protons through Atp, synthase into the stroma -> energy -> used yo produce atp
29
Calvin cycle
Light reactions made atp and nadph, drive 2nd stage of photsynthesis, co2 INCORPORATED into organic compounds in STROMA of chloroplast, series of enzyme assisted chemical reactions, produces a three carbon sugar, converted to 5c sugar (rubp) keep cycle operating, organic compound acts as energy storage
30
Factors affecting photosynthesis
Light, co2, h2o, temperature - as temp increases the rate of photosynthesis increases to a point and then decreases
31
chemosynthesis
Most life on Earth is dependent upon photosynthesis, the process by which plants make energy from sunlight. However, at HYDROTHERMAL VENTS in the deep ocean a unique ecosystem has evolved in the absense of sunlight, and its source of energy is completely different: chemosynthesis.
32
OIL RIG
OXIDATION is loss, REDUCTION IS GAIN
33
biological reaction series
aka biological pathways (cellular respiration and photosynthesis)
34
as light increases, the rate of photosynthesis
increases and then holds steady
35
as carbon dioxide increases, the rate of potosynthesis
increases and then hold steady
36
as temp increases, the rate of photosynthesis
increases to a point and then decreases
37
chloroplast
membrane, stroma, thylakoid, lumen, grana know all parts
38
photosynthesis
light reactions and calvin cycle
39
light reactions
IN sunlight OUT PS2 light excites electrons OUT PS1 electrons make NADPH OUT ATP Synthases ATO
40
4 main processes in light reaction cycle
PSI, PS2, ATP Synthase and water splitting
41
Calvin Cycle
IN 3 6carbon compounds (NADPH + ATP) OUT 3 6carbon compounds (ADP and NADP+) one makes a sugar and the others go back into the cycle when fused with CO2
42
Photosystem 2
light enters the pigments and excites electrons that move into the primary electron receptor they continue into the electron transfer and protons go out the thylakoid membrane
43
Photosystem 1
takes electrons from PSII adds more electrons get excited in pigments they charge the NADP+ until it becomes NADPH
44
ATP synthase
in ATP synthesis, the energy from the electrons is used to combine ADP and P+ to create ATP
45
water splitting
uses light energy to break up H2O. Oxygen diffuses OUT H is stored for energy and is moved out into the lower concentration of H in thylakoid space
