-
Where does Photosynthesis take place?
in the chloraplasts
-
jelly like interior of the chloroplast, where the calvin cycle produces sugar, where synthesis takes place
Stroma
-
describe the stroma
jelly like interior of the chloroplast, where the calvin cycle produces sugar, where synthesis takes place
-
describe the Thylakoids
green membranes, photo takes place, light turned into energy

-
Granum
a stack of Thylakoids
-
what do you call a stack of Thylakoids?
Granum
-
what does light reaction do?
converts solar energy to chemical energy via NADPH and ATP
-
what does sunlight do?
provides energy for photosynthesis
-
what happens to the H2O thats invested?
it splits into Oxygen, Hydrogen and electrons
-
how are the oxygen atoms made?
made when the H2O is spilt O2 is made
-
What is the oxidized form of NADPH?
NADP+
-
NADP+ is the oxidized form of what?
NADPH
-
What does NADPH do?
an electron carrier. light drives electron from water to NADPH
-
How is ATP used in photosynthesis?
produced in the light reactions and used in the Calvin cycle to provide energy for sugar synthesis
-
what is the calvin cylcle
makes sugar from CO2, ATP gives energy, NADPH provides elections for the reduction of carbon dioxide to glucose
-
what is the function of the chloroplasts?
production of ATP and sugars via photosynthsis
-
describe photosynthesis (3 points)
- 1.it provides nourishment for the plant,
- 2.it converts light energy into chemical energy and carbon-based building blocks,
- 3.it gives off O2 as a by product.
