Chapter 6- Photosynthesis Flashcards
Autotroph
Use energy from the sun to feed themselves
Inorganic
Compounds typicaly formed without carbon
Thylakoid
- membrane bound organelle
- a single disk from the grouping of granum
Granum
- stack of thylakoids within the chloroplast
Stroma
- jelly like fluid in the chloroplast
Carotenoid
Green pigment found in the chloroplast
A photo system
Functional and structural units of protein complexes
Primary electron acceptor
Couldnโt find any decent definition
(Donโt understand) ๐๐ ๐
Chemiosmosis
Movement of ions across the selectively permeable membrane
Carbon fixation
Conversion of carbon dioxide into the organic compound
Name the 2 types of light energy
There r
- light reactions
- Calvin cycle
What goes into light reactions
Light, water
What comes out of light reactions and into the Calvin cycle
ATP and NADPH
What goes into the Calvin cycle
Co2
What comes out of the Calvin cycle and into the light reactions
NADP+ and ADP
Photosystem 2
Light is absorbed
H2O>O2, H+ and E-
E- goes through E.T.C witch moves H+ to a higher concentration
Photosystem 1
More light is Absorbed
E- continued through E.T.C
More H+ moved
NADP+> NADPH
ATP synthase
H+(chemiosmosis)
ADP-ATP
The product of chemiosmosis
ATP
The three substances that are produced when my Water Molecules are broken down during light reactions
Hydrogen ions, electrons and oxygen
For this is this is an electron transport chainโs are located in the
Thylakoid membrane
