chapter 5 Flashcards
converts carbon in inorganic compounds into carbon in organic compounds
carbon fixation
all things combustable have phlagistin in them
phyligistin theory
chlorophyll looks green to us….why?
it reflects green light it is actually blue and red light
energy that travels in the form of waves
electromagnetic
what is the highest energy color?
violet/ purple
two types of photosynthesis pigment
chlorophyl a, chlorophyl b
photosynthesis takes place where?
leaves, chloroplast
what are the reactants for light dependent reactions?
water, adp, nadp+
what are the products for light dependent reactions?
oxygen, atp, naph
what is the reactant for light dependent reaction
light
membrane bound, chlorophyll and accessory pigment molecules
photosystems
where do light dependent reactions take place?
thylakoid membrane
electrons that get excited and drop back down in electrons
z scheme
what type of transport does z scheme use?
active
what do transport proteins do?
atp synthase
where do light independent reactions take place?
stroma
pores for gas exchange and run the risk of loosing water while they are open
stomata
ultimately going from carbon dioxide to glucose..what is this?
carbon fixation
RUBP
ribulose diphosphide
light independent is bound to what>?
RUBP
Carbon dioxide + RUBP= 6 carbon molecule that breaks down into what?
3 PGA
