Lecture 9 Flashcards
bacteria was probably
cyanobacteria-capable of photosynthesis
all eukaryotes have
mitochondria, chloroplasts have dna in them as well
differences in plant cell with mammalian cells
- cell wall-made of cellulose 9sugar) has beta 1,4 glycosidic linkage, we dont process it
- chlorophyll in chloroplast
- vacuoles - storage device (in euk, not supposed to be there, toxic)
chloroplast
3 separate membranes
converts sunlight (antenna complex, transfers energy to reaction center, goes from low to high energy state) outer, inner, and thylakoid membrane.
grana
stack of membranes
starch
sugars, have alpha 1,4 glycosidic bonds
matrix in mitochondria
what is in chloroplasts?
stroma
whats in the thylakoid and what does it allow us to do?
thylakoid space and to do another gradient
whats in the matrix which is similar to stroma?
DNA in stroma. originated from bacteria.
there are ribosomes in the chloroplasts for
making proteins
light cycle
captures energy and converts it into usable energy for next step. happens during day
dark cycle (calvin cycle)
carbon fixation step – making glucose. happens anytime. ATP, NADPH, GRADIENT
photon
packet of energy. its a wave.
how is there energy in a wave?
think of ocean. wave length makes a difference.
building of CO2 bc of
fossil fuels, ice melting, cows
