Can you pass electrons to a lower reduction potential?
no
You can only pass electrons to something with a ________ reduction potential.
Higher
Brief description of the "Z-scheme"
Things with a high reduction potential needs to be lowered to a lower reduction potential so that it can give electons to things with a higher reduction potential.

PSII
P700 is part of ...
PSI
PSI is a ________
complex
P700 is a part of....
The PSI complex
In a redox couple, electrons can only be passed to a compund with....
a higher (more positive) reduction potential (Eo value)
Ground State P680 =
in the dark
Ground State P680 can be excited by...
Light
What provides the energy to split water and lower the Eo Value of P680 to an excited state?
light
The excited states have a ______ reduction potential than the ground states
lower
The point of the z-scheme?
Make NADPH and set up electron transport
Summary of Light reactions?
PSII (P680) usues light energy to split water by photolysis
Hydrogen ions contribute to the proton gradient in the lumen
The electrons are passed fo the electron transport chain and povide energy for more proton pumping
Electrons passed to PQ and protons go from the stroma to the lumen to increase proton concentration in lumen
Cytb6/f complex accepts electrons and pumps some more protons into the lumen
Electrons are passed to PC and PSI (P700)
Electrons passed to NADP+ to make NADPH
The energy og the proton gradient is used to make ATP in the stroma
Photolysis produces protons in the...
lumen
Photolysis _______ the pH of the lumen
decreases
What are two way to increase the proton concentration in the lumen?
Photolysis in the lumen
Pumping protons from the stroma to the lumen
In chloroplasts, ATP is made in ...
the stroma
why do plants need water?
Water is the intial electron donor. No donor, to electron transport, no energy being made
why do plants need light?
For photolysis, and to lower the reduction potentials of P680 and P700
Why do plants need CO2?
For dark reactions
What do you get out of mitochondrial electron transport?
A proton gradient
What do you get out of chloroplastic electron transport?
A proton gradient
NADPH
Why does photophosphorylation produce NADPH and ATP?
To give to the dark reactions to help make a carbohydrate
For light reaction of photosynthesis the intial electron donor is
water.
For light reaction of photosynthesis the final electron acceptor is...
