Photosynthesis Overall
This organelle is where photosynthesis takes place.
Chloroplast!
This growth slows as it reaches the carrying capacity.
Logistic growth
These are general defenses you are born with.
Innate immunity physical barriers (skin, mucus), chemical barriers (stomach acid, lysozyme in tears)
What part of the thylakoid does this reaction occur in?
Membrane (Thylakoid Membrane)
True or False: Calvin Cycle cannot function without light.
False! The calvin cycle does not need light to function
These are the main pigments that absorb light in plants
Chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b.
*A pigment is any substance that absorbs light
If births = 80 and deaths = 30 in a population of 100, r equals:
r = 0.5
These proteins specifically bind to pathogens.
Antibodies (so what is displayed for the antibodies to attach to?)
This molecule is split to replace lost electrons in Photosystem II.
Water (H2O)
These two molecules from the light reactions power the Calvin Cycle.
ATP and NADPH.(outputs of the light-dependent reaction are ATP, NADPH, and O2)
What two sets of Reactions make up photosynthesis?
Light-Dependent Reaction and Calvin Cycle!
What would be the size of a population at the end of a time period if N1 = 50, b = 0.6, d = 0.1, and K = 100?
62! (round down! because you can't have half of an individual!)
These special B cells remember past infections.
Memory B cells (this is related to the secondary response)
This process creates ATP using a proton gradient.
chemiosmosis
This space surrounds the thylakoids and is where the Calvin Cycle occurs.
This is the main purpose of photosynthesis for plants.
Solar (light) energy is converted into chemical energy
If r is negative, the population is?
decreasing
This type of immunity is responsible for long-term protection after infection.
adaptive immunity (in your own words, can you explain it?)
This molecule carries high-energy electrons out of the light reactions. (meaning what is the output?)
NADPH
What happens if ATP and NADPH are not available?
Calvin Cycle stops / glucose is not produced. There is no energy source for CO2 to be built up into glucose (output)
What is the overall chemical equation for photosynthesis?
6 CO2 + 6 H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6 O2
Assume you have a population of flies. If N1 = 2 and r = 1, what will be the population size in N2, N3…N6?
r = b – d G = rN
(So find for N2 all the way to N6)
N2 = N1 + rN1 = 2 + (1*2) = 4
N3 = N2 + rN2 = 4 + (1*4) = 8
N4 = N3 + rN3 = 8 + (1*8) = 16
N5 = N4 + rN4 = 16 + (1*16) = 32
N6 = N5 + rN5 = 32 + (1*32) = 64
A scientist blocks the function of macrophages in an organism. Which key immune process would be most directly affected?
What is the destruction and engulfing (phagocytosis) of pathogens
If the ETC stops working, this molecule will NOT be produced. (Try to explain!)
If the ETC (light-dependent reaction) stops working, the ATP Synthase protein would not be able to produce ATP!
How many total turns of the Calvin Cycle are required to produce one molecule of glucose?
1 turn of the Calvin Cycle = 1 CO₂ enters
So:
