Szczepanski – 2015
Adapted from Huss
![Page 2: Szczepanski – 2015 Adapted from Huss. Almost all plants are photosynthetic autotrophs. –Autotrophs make their own food through photosynthesis –Sunlight.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032705/56649dbd5503460f94aafb0e/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
• Almost all plants are photosynthetic autotrophs.
– Autotrophs make their own food through photosynthesis
– Sunlight energy is changed to energy stored in the form of chemical bonds
(a) Mosses, ferns, andflowering plants
(b) Kelp
THE BASICS OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS
![Page 3: Szczepanski – 2015 Adapted from Huss. Almost all plants are photosynthetic autotrophs. –Autotrophs make their own food through photosynthesis –Sunlight.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032705/56649dbd5503460f94aafb0e/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Light Energy is taken in by Plants & Other Photosynthetic Autotrophs
6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6 O2

WHY ARE PLANTS GREEN?
Plant Cells have Green Chloroplasts

• Chloroplasts absorb light energy and convert it to chemical energy

• Photosynthesis is the process by which autotrophic organisms use light energy to make sugar and oxygen gas from carbon dioxide and water

• The Calvin cycle makes sugar from carbon dioxide– ATP made by the light
reactions provides the energy for sugar creation.
– The NADPH produced by the light reactions provides the electrons that change carbon dioxide to sugar

• The light reactions convert solar energy to chemical energy– Produce ATP & NADPH

PHOTOSYNTHESIS
• Sunlight provides ENERGY
CO2 + H2O produces Glucose + Oxygen
6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2

Steps of Photosynthesis
• Light hits reaction centers of chlorophyll, found in chloroplasts
• Chlorophyll vibrates and causes water to break apart.
• Oxygen is released into air• Hydrogen remains in chloroplast
attached to NADPH• “THE LIGHT REACTION”

Steps of Photosynthesis
• The DARK Reactions= Calvin Cycle
• CO2 from atmosphere is joined to H from water molecules (NADPH) to form glucose (sugar)

• In most plants, photosynthesis occurs primarily in the leaves, in the chloroplasts
• A chloroplast contains: – stroma, a fluid – grana, stacks of thylakoids
• The thylakoids contain chlorophyll– Chlorophyll is the green pigment that captures light for
photosynthesis
Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts

• Animation is of the Calvin Cycle Note what happens to the carbon dioxide and what the end product is.
• Second animation of the Calvin Cycle is very clear and even does the molecular bookkeeping for you.
