Ch. 9: Photosynthesis: Capturing Light Energy Flashcards
what is the formula for it
6CO2 + 12 H2O + light energy –> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O
how many wavelength types
two: long and short
__ wavelengths have __ energy (tv/radio/microwaves)
long; low
_- wavelengths have _- energy (uv; x-ray; gamma rays)
short; high
__ measure wavelength
nanometers
__ is composed of small particles (packets of light energy called __-)
light; photons
when a photon hits an atom, it __ and is __ by an electron trasporter
makes energy/emit; accepted
__ is not in all plants and have 2 membranes
cholorplast
__ have mitochondrias
plants
__ is the __ of chloroplasts
stroma; cytoplasm
__ is a flat membrane sac found in the stroma
thylakoid (where almost evrything takes place)
_- is found inside the chloroplast
stroma
__ is a green pigment and the main pigmen tof photosynthesis
chlorophyll
__ is an accesory pigment
carotenoids
__ dependednt rxn take place where
light; thylakoid (h2o in, it is split, and o2 goes out)
_- reactions take place in stroma
co2 fixations (co2 in; carbs out) (energy is transferred from atp to nadph molecules produced by light dep. rxn to chemical bonds on carbs)
adp to atp
phosphorylation
nadp+ t nadph
reduction
atp to adp d
dephosphorylation
nadph to nadp+
oxidation
fixation means
to make something usuable
o2 in, co2 out
humans
co2 in, o2 out
plants
what is the electron transporter in photosyn
nadp+
all photosystems are __
integral transmembrane proteins
photosystems are found where?
thylakoid membrane
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
photosystem steps:
- photon hits p680
- p680 splits h2o into o2 and h+
- electrons from p680 go through etc to make atp
- electrons then go to p700
- a new photon hits p700
- elctrons are excited (gain energy) and go to another etc
- eletrons join with nadp+ to reduce it to nadph
products of light dependent rxn
nadph and atp
__ 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)
light independent reactants
12 nadph and 18 atp
photosyn is an __ pathway (small–>big)
- opp of cell resp (which is catabolic) (c and c)
anabolic (p and a)
