what is the formula for photosynthesis?
6h20 +6co2=c6h12o6=o2
light is
photons
what color algae grows deepest? why?
red, red light weakest, can't reach low, the algae, absorbs all other light but red, reflects red.
rainbow is an example of ______light
refracted
unit symbol for wave length
lambda
wavelength is
crest to crest of light waves
frequency is
# of waves per unit time
chlorophyll does what
absorbs energy- uses it to kick electrons up
why do leaves turn red?
no chloroplasts
how do you give E back to Mg?
split the water, two pos. H's given back.
photons pump what?
H
chlorophylls absorb_______, not _________, that's why they are green
absorb red/orange, violet/blue, not green. reflect green.
which chlorophyll is used directly in photosynthesis?
a
calvin cycle aka
dark phase
what is the calvin cycle in reverse?
Glycolysis
calvin cycle 3 and 6 times
pgal and sugar
in the dark phase, why add a P?
to energise the molecue.
what is the purpose of the light phases?
to make energy and material for the dark phase
in non cyclic photophos. what happens instead of the H going back to the magnesium?
makes an NADPH
food thru
water thru
phloem
xylem

veins!!!
what type of algae did melvin calvin use to figure out the calvin cycle
chlorella
what did melvin plunge the chlorella into ti stop the photosynthesis?
boiling alcohol
after calvin put the algae into a centrifuge, got out the clear material, couldn't read rf values cause clear, what did he do
added carbon 14, at the beginning.
added carbon 14, then what?
did a chromatogram ,put the material on x-ray film , compared rf values.
differences between light and dark phase?
energy and raw materials vs. sugar/food
differences betweencyclic and non
cyclic-atp only
non-E not return to source
chlorophyll a does___
uses light energy from accessory pigments. has the Mg, uses it to kick off photosynth. kicks up EE
where does the light phase occur?
thylakoid membrane
what does rf refer to
ee
