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

A

reduction

19
Q

atp to adp d

A

dephosphorylation

20
Q

nadph to nadp+

A

oxidation

21
Q

fixation means

A

to make something usuable

22
Q

o2 in, co2 out

A

humans

23
Q

co2 in, o2 out

A

plants

24
Q

what is the electron transporter in photosyn

A

nadp+

25
Q

all photosystems are __

A

integral transmembrane proteins

26
Q

photosystems are found where?

A

thylakoid membrane

27
Q

how many types of photosystems; their names; and what they refer to

A

2; p700 (#1) and p680 (#2) [but p680 is before p700]; refer to long wavelengths

28
Q

photosystem steps:

A
  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
Q

products of light dependent rxn

A

nadph and atp

30
Q

__ 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

A

calvin cycle (calvin cycle, light independent rxn, carbon fixation)

31
Q

light independent reactants

A

12 nadph and 18 atp

32
Q

photosyn is an __ pathway (small–>big)
- opp of cell resp (which is catabolic) (c and c)

A

anabolic (p and a)
