|
Visible light excites pigment molecules by boosting...
|
electrons to higher energy levels
|
|
Where do the light-dependent reactions take place?
|
In the thykaloids of the chloroplast
|
|
In the light-dependent reactions, the excited electrons lost by P700 in
------- are used to reduce ------- to ------- which will be used in the -------. |
Photosystem I, NADP+ to NADPH, light-independent reactions.
|
|
ATP is produced when excited electrons lost by ------ are passed down an -------. This ATP will be used in the ------- reactions. After these electrons have given up their energy, they are taken up by pigments in ------
|
Photosystem II (P680), electron transport chain, light independent, Photosystem I.
|
|
The photolysis of water replaces electrons lost by -----. This reactions releases the inorganic by product -----.
|
photosystem II (P680), oxygen
|
|
The light-independent reactions (also known as the Calvin cycle) take place in the ------ of the chloroplast.
|
stroma

The Calvin cycle begins when ----- from the air reacts with ----- to form an unstable six-carbon molecule.
|
carbon dioxide, RuBP
|
|
The immediate end product of hte calvin cycle is

|
From the end product of the Calvin cycle (PGAL), plant cells synthesize -----, half of which is used in -----, but which can also be...
