Light Dependent

?
What is the role of Chlorophyll
Where chemical reactions take place
1 of 19
What is the Photosynthesis equation
Carbon dioxide + Water Glucose + Oxygen
2 of 19
What is needed for photosynthesis to occur
Sunlight, Water, Carbon dioxide, Chlorophyll
3 of 19
Definition of Oxidation
Addition of oxygen and loss of electrons, loss of hydrogen and energy given out
4 of 19
Definition of Reduction
Loss of oxygen, gains electrons and gains hydrogen
5 of 19
Where does Light-dependent take place
Takes place in the Thylakoid Membranes of the chloroplast
6 of 19
What happens to electrons when light is absorbed
Light energy excites electrons and they gain higher energy level to travel through transport chain
7 of 19
What does water under go to give an electron
Photolysis
8 of 19
What happens at ATP synthase
Protons move down the concentration gradient. ADP +PI ATP
9 of 19
What is the electron used for in PS1
Electron is used for NADP Reduced NADP (co-enzyme)
10 of 19
What does Cyclic Photophosphloration
Only produces ATP
11 of 19
Why is it Cyclic
Electron excites to higher energy level but is not passed on to NADP
12 of 19
What is the other name for Light independent reaction
The Calvin Cycle
13 of 19
What combines to create an unstable 6C molecule
CO2 and rubisco
14 of 19
What does unstable 6C molecule brakes down into
2 3C compounds
15 of 19
What is ATP & Reduced NADP used for in the Calvin Cycle and where does it come from
ATP is used to covert GP into GALP and comes from the light dependent reaction
16 of 19
What does GALP form
Useful organic compounds such as glucose, lipids
17 of 19
What is used to convert GALP RUBP
ATP is used
18 of 19
What is needed for the calvin cycle to occur again
5C molecule
