BIOL 1113 review 2
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| where do light reactions occur? | thylakoid |
| where does the calvin cycle occur? | stroma |
| What are the pours on leaves that open to allow CO2 and close to keep in water? | stomata |
| When sunlight hits the pigments in a plant, what two things happen? | pigment electrons become high energy, water is split |
| what happens to the hydrogen from the split water molecules? | hydrogen electron replaces pigment electron in photosystem II, hydrogen is bound to NADPH to carry the electrons, hydrogen moves through ATP synthase to generate ATP |
| photosystem II role of sunlight | make pigment electrons high energy, split water |
| what happens to the oxygen from the split water molecules | released as waste |
| ETC II role of high energy electron | moves down ETC to put energy into surrounding proteins, pumps hydrogen protons to inside of cell, becomes low energy electron |
| ETC II role of hydrogen protons | pumped through membrane by high energy electron, cause positive inner charge and strong gradient |
| photosystem I role of sunlight | re-energize low energy electron for ETC I |
| ETC I role of electron | move through to be bound to NADP |
| role of hydrogen protons after ETC II | gradient pushes them through ATP synthase to the outside of thylakoid where they are bound to NADP+ for calvin cycle, generate ATP as they move through |
| What are the reactors of the calvin cycle? | carbon dioxide from stomata, NADPH from light dependent reactions, ATP |
| What does the calvin cycle do? | fixates carbon into glucose with energy from light dependent reactions |
