|
definition of a pigment
|
any molecule that is able to absorb the energy from light only within a narrow range of wavelengths
|
|
|
pigments in photosynthesis
(name and color) |

carotenoids (red, orange or yellow) |
|
|
energy absorbed by these two special pigments
(name and wavelength) |
chlorophyll a molecules
P680 and P700 |
|
|
Pigments for each Photosystem
|
PSII:P680
PSI: P700 |
|
|
Photophosphorylation (def)
LIGHT REACTION |
the process of making ATp from ADP and Pi( Phtophorylation) using energy derived from light
|
|
|
Photophosphorylation
Step 1 |
*e- trapped by P680 in PSII are energized
*2e- gain E |
PS II
|
|
Photophosphorylation
Step 2 |
*2e- passed to primary electron acceptor
|
primary e- acceptor
|
|
Photophosphorylation
Step 3 |
*e- passed through electron transport chain
*e-s loos E *ferredoxin, cytochrome, non proteins containing iron |
e- trans chain
|
|
Photophosphorylation
Step 4 |
*E given off in e-trans chain used to convert ADp to ATP
*about 1.5 ATP |
phosphorylation
|
|
Photophosphorylation
Step 5 |
*PSI
*e- reenergized and passed to a diff primary electron acceptor |
PS I
|
|
Photophosphorylation
Step 6 |
*2e- combine with NADP+ & H+ to make NADPH (coenzyme)
|
NADPH
|
|
Photophosphorylation
Step 7 |
*2e- from PSII are in NADPH
*H2) splits and gives back e-s to PSII *a manganese containing protein complex catalyzes the reaction |
Photolysis
|
|
Light Reaction EQU
|
H20 + ADP + Pi + NADP+ + light ----> ATP + NADPH + O2 + H+
|
|
|
cyclic photophosphorylation
|
*energized e- from PS I join with protein carrier and generate APT as they pass long the e- trans chain
* e- return to PS I *primitive form of photosynthesis |
|
|
Calvin (Benson) Cycle
Carbon Reduction Cycle Light Dependent Rxn Dark Rxn |
*fixes CO2
*produces glucose *repeated 6 times using 6 CO2 molecules |
|
|
Calvin Cycle
Step 1 Carboxylation |
*6 CO2 combine with 6 RuBP to produce 12 PGA
|
|
|
Calvin Cycle
Step 2 Reduction |
* 12 ATP and 12 NADPH are used to convert 12 PGA to 12 PGAL
(ADP,Pi, and NADP+ are released then re energized in non cyclic photophosphorylation |
|
|
Calvin Cycle
Step 3 Regeneration |
*6 ATP are used to convert 10 PGAL to 6 RuBP
(reenergizes allowign the cycle to repeat) |
|
|
Calvin Cycle
Step 4 Carbohydrate synthesis |
*2 remaing PGAL from step 2 are use dto buil glucose (or frutose or maltose)
|
|
|
Dark Equation
|
6CO2 + 18 ATP + 12 NADPH + H+ ----> 18 ADP + 18 Pi + 12NADP+ + 1 glucose
|
|
|
Organelle where light and dark rxm occur
(sectin for each rxn) |
chloroplasts
light: phylacoids dark: stroma |
|
|
stroma (def)
|
outside phospholipid bilayer membrane enclosign liquid
contain enzymes for dark rxm |
|
|
thylacoid (def)
|
membrane layers in chloroplast
contain light absorbign pigmetns and enzymes |
|
|
granum (def)
|
stack of thlacoids
|
|
|
Chemiosmotic Theory
|
describes the mechanism by which ADP is phorphorylated to ATP
|
|
|
Chemiosmosis
Step 1 |
H+ ion accumulatre inside thylacoids
photolysis-H_ created go inside the thylacoid H+ also come from stroma |
|
|
Chemiosmosis
Step 2 |
A pH and electrical gradient across the thylacoid membrane is created
H+ causes and increase in Ph and positive E |
|
|
Chemiosmosis
Step 3 |
ATP synthase generate ATP
ATP allows for H+ to flow through the thylakoid membrane and out to the stroma passage of H+ give E for ADP-->ATP 3H+ for 1 ATP |
|
|
most common protein
2 fixes |
rubisco
fixes CO2 adn O2 |
|
|
phtorespiration
|
fixation of O2
probs: CO2 fixign reduced & O2+RuBP doesn't make glucose |
|
|
peroxisomes
|
near chlorplasts to break down products of phtoresporation
|
|
|
mesophyll cells
C4 |
absobs C03
|
|
|
C4 Photosynthesis
|
CO2 combines with PEP to form OAA
(fixing enzyme: PEP carboxylase) OAA is converted into malate malatate converted into pyruvate adn CO2 pyruvate back to mesophyll cells where converted back to PEP |
|
|
bundle sheath cells
C4 |
malate converted into pyruvate adn CO2
|
|
|
why C02 to bundle sheath cells?
C4 |
increase the efficency of phtosynthesis
BSC dont come in contact with intercellular space-very little O2 reaches them CO2 to BSC allows rubisco to fix it adn not O2 instead |
|
|
C4 climate adn why
|
hot dry
reduce the time that the stomatat are open, reduces H20 loss |
|
|
CAM
4 diff btw CAM and C4 |
1) OAA to malic acid (not malate)
2)malic acid to vacuole (not BSC) 3) stromata open at night. 4) Stromata clsoe durign day (malic acid out of vacuole adn converted abck to OAA) |
|
|
CAM, y day v night?
|
photosynthesis still occurs in day, tbu wtih stromata close reducing H20 loss
