Photosystems do what?
|
captured light energy that can be transferred to other molecules to produce energy intermeditaes
|
|
|
What does the thylakoid membrane of chloroplast contain?
|
protein complexes and pigment.
|
|
|
What are the two different protein complexes and pigments in the thylakoid membrane called?
|
Photosystem (I) – discovered first. Photosystem(II) – occurs first
|
.
|
|
What happens in the pigment molecules in PSII and PSI
|
Light excites the pigment molecules
|
|
|
what happens in the PSII? (general statement)
|
Excited electrons travel to PSI
|
|
|
What happens in PSII? (3 steps specific)
|
– water is oxidized generating O2 and H+– Release of electrons into the transport chain– energy used to make H+ electrochemical gradient
|
|
|
What happens in PSI?
|
NADPH is made by the addition of H+ through the electrochemical gradient
|
|
|
What happens to H+ in PSI? (3 steps)
|
There is an H+ gradient created by 3 things that is pushing H+ through the ETC using ATP Synthase.
1. H+ in thylakoid lumen by splitting water. 2.H+ by ECT pumping H+ into lumen.3. H+ from formation of NADPH in stroma |
.
|
|
What is the process of ATP Synthesis?
|
1. Chemiosmotic(relating to the movement of ions across a semipermeable membrane).
2. Driven by flow of H+ from thylakoid lumen into stroma via ATP synthase. |
|
|
What happens to the flow of Electrons in PSII and PSI? (2 steps)
|
Electrons begin at PSII and eventually transfer to NADPH. Linear process produces ATP and NADPH in equal amounts.
|
|
|
Where does Cyclic photophosphorylation happen?
|
PSI
|
|
|
What happens in cyclic photophosphorylation? (3 part)
|
1. Light excites electrons in PSI.
2. High energy electrons sent to ferrodoxin. 3. Cyclic electron flow favored when NADPH level is high |
|
|
What are the Noncyclic parts of PSI and PSII?
|
1. Electrons begin at PSII and eventually transfer to NADPH.
2. Linear process produces ATP and NADDPH in equal amounts. |
