Photosynthesis
water
The oxygen produced in photosynthesis comes from what molecule? or What donates electrons to PSII?
stroma
Where does the Calvin Cycle occur?
oxidation of sugar without making ATP or NADPH
What is photorespiration?
The initial carbon dioxide fixation product in C4 plants is a four-carbon compound
What is oxaloacetate?
18 ATP, 12 NADPH
How many ATP and NADPH are used in the Calvin Cycle to make 1 glucose?
Converting inorganic carbon (CO2) into organic carbon.
What is carbon fixation?
CAM plants open their stomata during this time period to minimize water loss
What is night?
Chloroyphyll A & B, and caretenoids
What pigments are involved in photosynthesis?
Products of the light reactions.
What are ATP and NADPH?
The final product of the Calvin Cycle.
What is G3P or glucose?
Using energy to pump solute across a membrane against a concentration gradient
What is active transport?
Specialized cell in C4 plants is the primary site of the Calvin cycle
What is a bundle sheath cell?
6CO2 + 6H2O + light--> C6H12O6 + 6O2
What is the formula for Photosynthesis?
18 ATP, 12 NADPH, oxygen.
What are the products of the light reactions?
The three stages of the Calvin Cycle.
What are carbon fixation, reduction and regeneration?
Concentration difference and electrical charge difference across a membrane
What is an electrochemical gradient?
Enzyme is responsible for the initial carbon fixation in both C4 and CAM plants
What is PEP carboxylase?
Absorb different wavelengths of light
What are pigments?
Destination of ATP & NADPH.
What is the Calvin Cycle?
NADPH, ATP, CO2, RuBP, and Rubisco
What are the reactants of the calvin cycle?
The enzyme responsible for carbon fixation in the Calvin cycle.
What is Rubisco?
C4 and CAM plants spatially or temporally separate the initial carbon fixation from this process.
