lecture 5 Flashcards
Cyclic electron flow:
(like the electron transport chain but for photosynthesis)
where does calvin cycle takes place for both type of cells?
Calvin cycle takes place in the cytosol in the prokaryote cells
in Eukaryote cells it happensin the stroma of the chloroplast
How does the calvin cycle start?
The cycle starts with carbon dioxide
The energy in the reactions of the calvin cycle is being supplied by
The energy in the reactions of the cycle is being supplied by Atp becoming ADP and NADPH becoming NADP+. Needs ATP to run. Otherwise it can’t create NADP.
explain the calvin cycle
Carbon dioxide joins C5 which is RuBP and turns into C6.
ATP turns into ADP and NADPH turns into NADP. Then creating 2C3.
That’s how we get Glucose C6
How many times does the calvin cycle occur?
The calvin cycle occurs six times this requires 12 ATP and 12 ADP and 12 NADPH and 12 NADP+
In the calvin cycle 1 glucose produces?
FOR 1 GLUCOSE: 12 NADPH AND 18 ATP
Photosynthesis
Light energy feeding into the ligh reactions and that energy is absorbed, NADPH
What is happening in photosynthesis?
linear and cyclical flow is happening in photosynthesis
Photosynthesis is the exact reverse of
Photosynthesis is the exact reverse of cellular respiration
Example of prokaryote
Bacteria
Cell division and the nucleoid
the genetic material found in the nucleoid, the dna in they nucleoid needs to be copied one for each of the daughters cells. the dna are being pulled to each side of the wall if the cell. Cell division is called binary fission. We start with one cell and end with two clones of that cell. Bacteria can go through binary fission after every 30 min.
What other typ e of cell goes through cell divisions? role of cell division?
Eukaryotic cells go through cell divisions too. Cell divisions can happen for growth, for repair of damage, replacement of blood cells. Can play a lot of roles in eukaryotic division.
What is the cell cycle?
is a sequence of events where cells grow and divide. This is slower in eukaryotic cells than prokaryote cells.
What is mitotic phase?
Cell division happens during this phase.
