bio ch. 7

plants use sunlight to make glucose; 6CO2 + 12 H20= glucose + 6 O2

make their own food; producers; plants

get food from other organisms; consumers; animals, humans

where photosynthesis takes place

pores in the plant leaves for CO2 to come in and O2 to exit

middle of the leaf

open space in chloroplast; where calvin cycle takes place

a flattened disk in chloroplasts

stacks of thylakoid disks; where light reaction takes place

photosytem I & II; makes ATP and O2

stage that actually makes glucose from CO2; dark reaction

a measure of the difference between waves of energy

it reflects that wavelength of light back

measures how much light is absorbed by a solution

shorter wavelengths have more energy

green pigment used in photosynthesis

yellow-organge pigment

brown pigment

red pigment

makes oxygen and ATP

production of ATP in plants from light energy

makes NADPH

NADP holds an H+ for the calvin cycle

CO2 made into sugar; C3 cycle;  6CO2 + 18 ATP + 12 NADPH= glucose

get CO2 at night, convert to malate, close stomata during day, at night convert malate back to CO2 and starts dark reaction

converts CO2 into oxaloaccetate, sends oxaloacetate to a different part of the cell, converts oxaloacette back to CO2 and starts dark reactions
