Photosynthesis

QuestionAnswer
What types of organisms do photosynthesis? plants, algae, some types of bacteria
what is the purpose of photosynthesis? to make food (glucose) for plants, which is then used to make ATP energy
What is the formula for photosynthesis? 6CO2 + 6H2O ----> C6H12O6 + 6O2 LIGHT
What are the reactants of photosynthesis? carbon dioxide and water
what are the products of photosynthesis? glucose and oxygen
where does photosynthesis occur? in the chloroplast of plants: light reactions in the thylakoids; Calvin cycle in the stroma
what are the 2 reactions of photosynthesis? light-dependent reaction and light independent reaction (aka Dark reaction or Calvin Cycle)
What happens during the light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis? the plant uses light, water, adp and nadp+ electron carrier to make ATP and NADPH which are needed to run the Calvin Cycle. Oxygen is produced as a waste product
What happens during the light-independent reaction of photosynthesis? ATP, NADPH, and carbon dioxide are used to make glucose. ADP and NADP+ are also formed, which are needed for the light reaction
what is considered a waste product of photosynthesis? oxygen--it is release from the plant since it is not needed, which benefits animals...
where does the carbon to make glucose in the calvin cycle come from? animals breathe out CO2 during cellular respiration, which is used by plants during the calvin cycle.
