Light Reactions
This Process Uses The Proton Gradient Across The Thylakoid Membrane To Drive ATP Synthesis
Chemiosmosis
What Is The Enzyme Catalyzes Carbon Fixation?
Rubisco
What Pigment Directly Absorbs Light Energy In The Light Reactions?
Chlorophyll
This Process Decreases Photosynthetic Efficiency By Consuming Oxygen
Photorespiration
This Plant Adaptation Spatially Separates Carbon Fixation From Calvin Cycle
C4 Plants
- Chemiosmosis
- ETC
This Three-Carbon Sugar Is The Direct Product That Leaves The Calvin Cycle
G3P
What Structure Is Within Chloroplasts That Are Like Stacks Of Discs?
Thylakoids
This enzyme initiates photorespiration through its oxygenase activity
Rubisco
What Is The First Produce For A C4 Plant?
Oxaloacetate
This Molecule Is The Final Electron Acceptor In The Light Reactions & Becomes Reduced
NADP+
What Two Things Molecules Does The Calvin Cycle Generate?
- NADP+
- ADP
The stored energy within a molecule/system due to its structure/position?
Potential Energy
Photorespiration Results In A Loss Of 3 Fixed What?
Carbon Atoms
Does C3 Or C4 Plants Use More ATP & NADPH?
C3 plants
This Protein Complex In The ETC Absorbs Light Energy & Uses It To Split Water Molecules --> Releases Oxygen
Photosystem II
What Are The Three Stages Of The Calvin Cycle?
- Carbon fixation
- Reduction
- Regeneration
What Organelle Carries Out Photosynthesis?
Chloroplast
Photorespiration Directly Competes With This Photosynthetic Process
Calvin cycle
In CAM Plants, What Plant Pathway Is At Night & Which Pathway Is During The Day?
