Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Flashcards
the process through which plants make foods
Photosynthesis
is the process wherein cells break down food to release the stored energy and use it to make ATP.
Cellular Respiration
substances that takes part in a reaction and undergoes a change during the reaction
reactants
substances that are formed after a reaction
products
The light dependent reaction takes place in the
thylakoid
the light independent reaction takes place in the
stroma
both ____ are parts of the chloroplastids
thylakoid and stroma
Glycolysis takes place in the
cytoplasm
what happen in the mitochondrion
Krebs Cycle and the Electron Transport Chain and Oxidative Phosphorylation
Krebs Cycle and the Electron Transport Chain and Oxidative Phosphorylation happens in the
mitochondrion; in the mitochondrial matrix and the inner mitochondrial membrane
light dependent reaction takes place in the
thylakoid of plastids
light dependent reaction uses
light energy
Light dependent reaction important events
photolysis of water, ATP formation, reduction of NADP
reactants of light dependent reaction
water
product of light dependent reaction
oxygen , ATP and NADPH (energy-carrier molecules)
Light independent reaction takes place in the
stroma of plastids
light independent reaction does not use
does not use light energy but uses the ATP and NADPH2 produce from the Light Dependent reaction
light independent reaction important events
carbon fixation, reduction and RuBP regeneration
reactant of light independent reaction
carbon dioxde?, ATP and NADPH2
product of light independent reaction
glucose, RuBP
is comprised of a light harvesting complex and a chlorophyll reaction center
Photosystem II (P680)
Light energy also splits water into Hydrogen and Oxygen in a process known as
photolysis
reactants of photosynthesis
water and carbon dioxide
products of photosynthesis
oxygen and glucose
reactants of cellular respiration
oxygen and glucose
products of cellular respiration
water and carbon dioxide
Light absorption in PSI. PS I absorbs light energy which passes the enrgized electrons to ferredoxin. This results in the
formation of an NADPH molecule
