pruducts of the light reactions of photosynthesis that provide energy for the calvin cycle are?
atp and nadph
the energy from the sun is converted into chemical energy in the form of organic compounds in a series of linked chemical reactions called a
biochemical pathway
NADP is important in photosyntehsis because it
provides protons and electrons for some reactions
the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis is to
absorb light energy
when light strikes an object the light may be
reflected absorbed or transmitted
energy is required for a variety of life processes including
growth and reproduction, movement, transport of certain materials across cell membranes.
the source of oxygen produced during photosynthesis is
water
chemiosmosis is the thylakoid memebrane is directly responsible for
providing the energy to produce atp molecules
the electrons of photosystem 1
are eventually replaced by electrons from photosystem 2
the sun is considered the ulitmate source of energy for life on earth becasue
either photosyntheti corganismims or organisms that have eaten them provide energy for all other organisms on earth
the major atospheric byproduct of photosynthesis is
oxygen
at the thylakoid membrane,
electrons return to their original energy levels
light reactions:thylakoids::
calvin cycle:stroma
during hte calvin cycle carbon containing molecules are produced from
carbon atoms from carbon dioxide in the air and hydrogen atoms from NADPH
photosynthesis:oxygen::
respiration: carbon dioxide
which of the following can be produced form the products of the calvin cycle
carbohydrates, lipids, proteins
all organic molecules ocntain carbon at oms that ultimately can be traced back in the food chain to
carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
the energy used in the calvin cycle for the production of carbohydrate molecules comes from
atp made in teh light reactions of photosynthesis
biochemical pathway: reaction::
assembly line : workers
suspended in the fluid stroma of chloroplasts are
stacks of thylakoids called grana
chlorophyll is green because
it reflects green ewave lengths of light
during photosynthesis the series of reactions that create the complex carb. needed for energy and growth is called
calvin cycle
what happnes when a chlorophyll molecule absorbs llight
some of its electrons are raised to a higher energy level
chloroplast:grana::
photosystem: pigment molecules
heterotrophs are organisms that can
consume other organisms for energy
the process whereby plants capture energy and make complex molecules is known as
photosynthesis
the calvin cycle of photosynthesis
requires ATP and NADPH
can occur in both light and dark conditions
generates glucose
when electrons of a chlorophyll molecule are raised to a higher energy level
they enter an electron transport chain
organisms that harvest energy from either sunlight or chemicals in order to make food molecules are called....
autotrophs
the abundance of oxygen in earths atomosphere is a result of millinons of years of
photosynthesis
the mian pigment associated wiht the two photosystems is
chlorophyll a
a photosynthetic pigment that absorbs primarily red and blue wavelengths of light and appears green is called {{_____while pigments that absorb other wavelengths and appear eyllow and orange are called____
chlorophyll...caratonids
____plants have an enzyme that can fix co2 into four carbon compounds.
c4
chemiosmosis in the thylakoid membrane results in the synthesis of_____
atp
stacks of thylakoids called____are suspended in the stroma of chloroplasts
grana
the second stage of photosyntehsis in wicch glucose is manufactured is called the
