AP Bio unit three
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| purpose for photosynthesis | transform light energy into chemical energy/glucose |
| where do light reactions happen | the membrane of the thylakoid/grana |
| where does the Calvin cycle occur | the stroma |
| chemical formula of PS | CO2 + H20 + light energy= glucose + H2O+ oxygen |
| glycolysis input | glucose |
| glycolysis output | NADH, ATP, Pyruvate |
| where does glycolysis occur | cytosol |
| link cycle input | Pyruvate |
| link cycle output | CO2, NADH, Acetyl CoA |
| where does the link cycle occur | Mitochondrial matrix |
| Krebs cycle input | Acetyl CoA |
| krebs cycle output | NADH, FADH2, ATP, CO2 |
| where does the Krebs cycle occur | Mitochondrial matrix |
| oxidative phosphorylation input | electrons (NADH, FADH2, O2) |
| OXPHOS output | ATP, H2O |
| where does OXPHOS occur | the mitochondria cristae |
| ETC helps to create what | a proton gradient |
| light reactions input | photons, H2O |
| light reactions output | NADPH, ATP,O2 |
| why are light reactions important | produces ATP for Calvin cycle, NADPH brings carbon to carbon fixation |
| Calvin cycle (dark reaction) input | NADPH, ATP |
| Calvin cycle output | G3P |
| why is the Calvin cycle important | stores energy in the G3P, creates organic carbon |
