Concept 2: Analyzing the Processes of PhotosynthesisRefer to pg 83-92 in Holtzclaw, Ch 10 in Campbell and media resources
Refer to pg 297-299 in Holtzclaw, Lab Inv 5 in Lab ManualYou must know:
The summary equation of photosynthesis including the source and fate of reactants and products
How the leaf and chloroplast anatomy relates to photosynthesis
How photosystems convert solar energy to chemical energy
How linear electron flow in the light reactions results in the formation of ATP, NADPH, and O2
How chemiosmosis generates ATP in the light reactions
How the Calvin cycle uses the energy molecules of the light reactions to produce G3P
The Light Reactions
Light energy excites electrons in ______________
Removal of _____________from H2O
o Formation of ________
Electron Transport Chain
o Reduction of NADP+ to ______________
Proton Motive Force
ATP Synthase to produce ______
CO2 + H2O → C6H12O6 + O2

Unlike in cellular respiration, the proton motive force generated by the light reactions in photosynthesis happens in three ways… Can you remember the three ways?
1. Electron transport chain powering the active transport of H+ into the _____________________
2. H+ produced in the ____________________from the splitting and oxidation of water
3. Removal of H+ from _____________during the reduction of NADP + to NADPH
The whole point of the light reaction was to transfer light energy to chemical energy in the form of:
electrons in NADPH
ATP
Why?
The Calvin Cycle
CO2 enters as a gas through the stomata (openings) of the leaves
Through the power of NADPH and ATP, CO2 gets converted into an __________________: a 3-carbon sugar called glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P)
Can be converted to glucose, sucrose, starch, etc…
