Light Dependent Flashcards
What do light dependent reactions require
Sunlight and water
Where does light hit?
Antenna chlorophyll
What does antenna chlorophyll hit by light do?
Light makes it energetic and electrons jump through chlorophyll in random order until it reaches reaction centre chlorophyll which ejects and electron onto electron acceptor. Which then enters the etc of the thylakoid
Where do light dependent reactions occur
On the thylakoid membrane
What does light reactions do?
Absorb wavelengths if light
Do lift dependent reactions occur during the night?
No
Where do light dependent reactions occur?
Thylakoid membrane
What do light dependent reactions do
Absorb wavelengths of light
What do light dependent reactions do/ create
Phosphorylate ADP to ATP
Reduce NADP to NADPH2
Oxidize water and produce O2 as waste
