Q

why don’t the electrons go backwards?

A

NADH is extremely high molecule, so free energy (G)
as we pass the electrons to complex 1 the energy lowers and so on so forth
Electrons are losing energy as they move along the electron transport chain
if they went backwards , there would have to gain a lot of energy but since there is no pump to give energy the flow continues an exergonic way of energy

143
Q

antenna complex

A

areas (chlorophyll) that are waiting to capture the radio signal (light photon)
light captured from the sun will cause the affected chlorophyll to activate a chain reaction of chlorophyll being activated which eventually reaches the reaction center

144
Q

reaction center

A

pair of molecules that are able to use that energy given from the sun

145
Q

at the reaction center

A

light energy is converted to chemical energy
an electron pair is moved to a higher energy state and becomes energized
transferred through different proteins and then out of the photosystem

146
Q

photosystem

A

electrons are stolen from the water making the water oxidized which produces oxygen

147
Q

process so far

A

light energizes electrons, those energized electrons leave and then take electrons from water to replace those electrons and then those will be energized when another photon comes

148
Q

the photon of light hits photosystem 2

A

takes electrons away from water and energizes
oxygen can leave by simple diffusion to the stomata and being released to the atmosphere

149
Q

energized electrons

A

go through the chloroplast between the stroma and thylakoid lumen

150
Q

electron transport chain of chloroplast

A

passing energized electrons to Plastoquinone
PQ moves via fluid mosaic model and takes it to cytochrome complex
cytochrome complex passes energized electrons to plastocyanin
PC diffuses to photosystem 1 with energized electrons
now energized electrons get handed to NADP+ reductase (reduces NADP+ to NADH)

151
Q

At photosystem 1 energized electrons

A

have lost most of their energy thus are re-energized with new sunlight

152
Q

Again, why don’t electrons move backwards

A

energy is being used to go through the electron train transport, to go backwards it so acquire energy that is nowhere to be found

153
Q

where did the energy go?

A

cytochrome complex pumps protons to the thylakoid lumen
cytochrome complex in the bilayer saves some of the energy and pumps protons into the lumen protons are being pushed against their electrical gradient
lumen will be more acidic than stroma

154
Q

what can we do with the proton gradient

A

ATP synthase can exist as a protein to serve as a proton gradient that will allow protons to move with the electrical gradient into the stroma and mate with endergonic synthase with ADP

155
Q

Light-dependent reaction. Energy transferred from {} to {} and {}

A

water to cytochrome complex and atp synthase

156
Q

we produce ATP and NADH to power carbon fixation but ratio is off within carbon fixation cycle

A

we need more ATP per NADPH

157
Q

fix the ratio of carbon fixation

A

allow a different pathway at photosystem one
which can transfer energized electrons to NADP reductase or PQ
ALWAYS come from Plastocyanin

158
Q

energy diagram noncyclic electron flow

A

energized electrons from photosystem one can move to plastoquinone or plastocyanin
MAKES ATP but not NADPH

159
Q

Light-independent reactions

A

not directly dependent on light
carbon fixation reactions
cyclic metabolic pathway in the stoma (calvin cycle, calvin-benson cycle, carbon fixation cycle)

160
Q

key enzyme is rubisco

A

Ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase MOST ABUNDANT ENZYME
due to the low velocity
5c + CO2—> 2 3C

once every six cycles
two 3C molecules leave

161
Q

3 carbon from rubisco

A

go through a similar process as gluconeogenesis to build up a glucose molecule
glucose can be made into sucrose, starch, cellulose, and other carbohydrates
can be exported from mesophyll cells to feed the rest of the plant
