Biology- 6.1 Flashcards
Lost and electron?
Oxidated
Redox Reaction:
Electrons are the particle being moved from one product to the next
Gained an electron?
Reduced
First stage of photo?
Light reactions
Second stage of photosynthesis?
Calvin cycle
Equation for photosynthesis
6 CO2 + 6 H2O —> C6H12O6 + 6 O2
Chloroplast
Organelles that absorb light, has membrane
Flattened sacs in chloroplast
Thylakoids
Stacks of thylakoids
Grana
Solution in chloroplast
Stroma
Where does the light reaction and Calvin cycle take place?
Light- thylakoid membrane
Calvin- stroma
Pigment
Compounds that absorb light
Chlorophyll
In thylakoids membrane, pigment
Carotenoids
Yellow orange and brown pigments in membrane
Accepts electrons from chlorophyll a
Primary electron acceptor
Gets electrons from primary electron acceptor
Electron transport chain
What does the light reaction release?
NADPH, Oxygen, ATP
What does the Calvin cycle use and release?
Uses ATP and NADPH and produces glucose
Complex series of chemical reactions where the product of one reaction is consumed in the next.
Biochemical pathway
Equation when enzyme splits water molecules..
2 H2O —> (4 H+) + (4 E-) + O2
What enzyme is is the protein to make ATP?
ATP synthase
Synthesis of ATP accross a thylakoid membrane
Chemiosmosis
