____- incorporation of light from a photon into the chemical bonds of a sugar molecule.
Photosynthesis
____- region where chloroplasts reside.
Mesophyll
____- organelle where photosynthesis occurs.
Chloroplast
____- allow for gas exchange (02 and CO2)
Stomates
____- where the calvin cycle takes place
Stroma
____ are stacked into grana, sites of the light reactions.
Thylakoids
The light reactions in the ____ produce O2, ATP, and NADPH.
thylakoid membrane
The Calvin cycle in the ____ uses CO2, ATP, and NADPH to make carbohydrates such as sugars.
stroma
____ is the process by which plants capture light energy, trap it in chemical bonds and use that energy to assemble needed molecules.
Photosynthesis
Remember chloroplast has ____ membranes.
3
This takes place in the semiautonomous organelle, chloroplast.
Photosynthesis
w/in stroma ____ takes place.
calvin cycle
____ take place in the thylakoid membrane.
Light reactions
Needed ____ generated in the light reaction that are needed in the calvin cycle connect these two.
substrates
NADP+, picks up a h+ and an electron to form ____.
ADP becomes ____
NADPH
ATP
Two phases of photosynthesis:
Light Reactions
Calvin Cycle
____ - produce ATP and reduce NADP+ to NADPH
Light reactions
____ - Fix and reduce carbon to generate Glyceraldehyde-3-p (G_3_P)
Calvin Cycle
____ it used to assemble needed organic molecules.
G-3-P
Visible Light - ROYGBIV, Red is on ___ with longest wavelength, Violet is on ____ with shortest wavelength
right
left
Photons interact with ____, which become photoexcited.
____ will return to ground state (and emit a lower energy photon) or be removed.
e-
e-
____ jump up an orbital, key part of the process, an excited electron traps that energy.
Electrons
Two different ____ A and b with there slightly different spectrum.
Also ____ have a slightly different spectrum.
chlorophyll's
carotene's
Different ____ protect the plant from high UV light in addition to expanded spectrum.
accessory pigments
These colors are also responsible for the colors in the fall. As the ____ degraded, you see the other pigments that were unnoticed until the chloroplast/____ pigment is broken down.
chlorophyll
chlorophyll
Japanese maple, certain leaves are more red and some are more green. The ones getting the most sunlight (the ones on top) are the reddest. The ones getting less light need more ____ so they are greener.
chloroplasts/chlorophyll
____ is the first, it splits a water molecule, but it is also where light energy is harvested and converted to chemical reactions by excited electrons to the primary electron acceptor.
Photosystem 2
Light hits ____, jumps up to an excited state, as it falls down to ground it keeps on doing this to its neighbor until it goes to its primary electron acceptor.
light harvesting complex
(____ is the best/maximum absorption spectrum)
p680
"hopscotch of transferring ____ from one molecule to the next"

In photosystem 2, ____ is transferred along pigment molecules until it reaches P680.
energy
energy
Energy from ____ is then picked up by the primary electron acceptor.
P680
____ is produced by P680 as the missing electrons are replaced by cleavage of a water.
Oxygen
PS2 is where ____ is cleaved.
Remember all of this is taking place in the ____.
water
thylakoid membrane
At the end of ____ we have both ATP and NADPH, which are the building blocks needed to run the calvin cycle.
noncyclic flow
____ is another light harvesting complex with many of the same feature of ps2. NADP gets reduced to NADPH.
Ps1
When this is all up and running we have ____.

After the primary electron acceptor is reduced, this passes on to another electron acceptor (a donor) which then passes it on to another, ____, it then passes it on again to another
Non-cyclic flow
cytochrome complex
Each time electrons get passed, energy is lost, this energy is used to pump ____, and it is creates a ____ gradient and we have atp synthase creating atp.
h+'s
h+
The reason to turn off ____ and turn on ____ comes down to the fact that you need more ATP then nadph in relative amounts. OR! You need to make more ATP than nadph so cycle between these two cycles, but this is a way to crank out extra ATP that is needed metabolically.
non-cyclic flow
cyclic flow
So electrons rather than delivered to nadp reductase they are shuttled around and lose energy as the flow through the system which is then transferred to h+ in the thylakoid lumen which results in the production of ATP but not NADPH.
cyclic flow
____ is different, in this Ps2 is turned off and inactive, also nadp reductase is turned off (so do not make nadph)
So ps1 still captures light energy, and electrons still transport through the electron transport chain.
cyclic flow
3 phases of Calvin cycle:
Fixation phase - trap co2
Reduction phase - add electrons to it
Regeneration phase - get ready for the next round
We have trapped light energy and we have two of our necessary components.

Now have ____, some of the products become some of the substrates of the next pass of the cycle.
Calvin cycle
____ - atmospheric co2 is actually attached or fixed to an organic molecule present inside a stroma (co2 is attached to RuBP)
Carbon fixation phase
____ - add the electrons you caught in the light harvesting reaction
Reduction phase
____ - phase you make more RuBP for the next cycle.
Regeneration phase
____ -
Phase 1, Carbon Fixation
Phase 2, Reduction and carbohydrate production
Phase 3, Regeneration of RuBP
Calvin Cycle
The ____ in the thylakoid membrane produce O2, ATP, and NADPH.
light reaction
The ____ in the stroma uses CO2, ATP, and NADPH to make carbohydrates such as sugars.
Calvin cycle
Plants are green because green light is maximally absorbed by photosynthetic pigments.
False, Green light is reflected!
____,
While an important feature of the light reactions, it is not a component of PS II
