Chapters10,11,12 Flashcards
photosynthetic organisms
plants, multi&single cellular protist, bacteria (prokaryotes)
anabolic
use energy to construct macromolecules
photosynthesis inputs
CO2, light, H2O
photosynthesis outputs
sugar and O2
G3P +G3P=
glucose
endergonic
chemical reaction that stores energy, products have higher energy than reactants
light reactions
generates ATP and Nadph in the thylakoid space
calvin cycle
generates high energy products (sugar) in the stroma
C4 and CAM plants
each have one extra CO2 fixation and one extra calvin cycle due to hot arid climate
mesophyll
tissue layer between upper and lower epidermis, main primary photosynthesis tissue
veins
deliver water to leaves from roots
stoma
pores that allow CO2 to enter and O2 to exit
electron transport chain
photo excited electron goes through and the same electron is recycled back to photosystem 1 produces ATP only
how is light energy involved in cell division?
you can use the sun to help you grow your cells. You can eat a plant that has gone through photosynthesis and grow people with cell growth
chlorophyll
primary pigment in plants
CO2 added to calvin cycle
it is added to Rubp through rubisco in phase 1
endosymbiant theory
ancient eukaryotic cell engulfs a prokaryotic cell, (that could go through photosynthesis for the chloroplasts or oxidative phosphorylation)
direct communication
Gap junction and plasmodesmata, direct movement of signaling molecules dissolved in cytosol
cell- cell recognition
direct attachment of membrane bound cell- surfaced organelles
local signaling
cells signal nearby cells, paracrine (growth factors), synaptic (neurotransmitters)
long distance signaling
lots of info moved a long distance through blood nervous or endocrine systems
transduction
change shape and function of proteins, goes from inactive to active state, sending signal of phosphorylation cascades or secondary messenge
