Energy Transfers In And Between Organisms Flashcards
Where does the LDR place?
Thylakoid membrane
Where does the LIR take place?
Stroma
Describe the structure of a chloroplast
Double membrane
Thylakoids
Granum = stack of thylakoid
Stroma
Describe what happens during photoionisation in the light-dependent reaction.
The electrons become exited by light and raise up an energy level then leave the thylakoid membrane
Name the two products of the light-dependent reaction that are required for the light independent reaction
NADPH
ATP
What chemicals are needed for the light-dependent reaction?
NADP,ADP, Pi and water
Where does glycolysis take place?
Cytoplasm
Describe the process of glycolysis. 4marks
Glucose is phosphorylated by adding a phosphate to become glucose phosphate using an ATP molecule
Triose phosphate is the oxidised to form two molecules of pyruvate
NADH is formed
Net gain of ATP
Where does the link reaction take place?
Matrix of mitochondria
Where does the kerbs cycle take place?
Matrix
Where does oxidative phosphorylation take place?
Electron transfer chain
