Photosynthesis Rxn
|
6CO2 + 6H2O + Light -> C6H12O6 + 6O2
(Chlorophyll goes above the yield arrow) |
|
|
Calvin Cycle and Light Reactions
|
Light Reactions: convert radiant energy and into chemical energy
Calvin Cycle: builds CO2 into glucose |
|
|
How are light reactions and the Calvin Cycle related?
|
First in the Light reaction, sunlight is converted into ATP, then the ATP from the light reaction is used to produce glucose in the Calvin Cycle.
|
|
|
Where do light reactions occur?
The Calvin Cycle? |
Light reactions occur on the thylakoid membrane
Calvin Cycle occurs in the stroma |
|
|
Chloroplast anatomy
|
there are two outer membranes in the chloroplast, the stroma is the fluid in the chloroplast, the thylakoids are the individual stacks, the grana is the stack of the thylakoids
|
|
|
How do you calculate Rf values?
|
Rf= Distance pigment moved/ distance solvent moved
|
|
|
What factors influence the rate of photosynthesis?
|
amount of light, amount of water, amount of CO2, color of light
|
|
|
How do you measure the rate of photosynthesis?
|
height of the plant, the amount of water intake, the amount of 02 produced
|
|
|
Photosynthesis vs. Cell. resp.
|
Cell respiration is an exothermic process while photosynthesis is an endothermic process. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast. While cell. respiration occurs in the mitochondria. Cellular respiration occurs in animals. Photosynthesis occurs in plants.
