Photosynthesis (Chapter 10) You must know: The summary equation of photosynthesis including the source and fate of reactants and products How the leaf and chloroplast anatomy relates to photosynthesis How photosystems convert solar energy to chemical energy How linear electron flow in the light reactions results in the formation of ATP, NADPH, and O 2 How chemiosmosis generates ATP in the light reactions How the Calvin cycle uses the energy molecules of the light reactions to produce G 3 P

Photosynthesis – The Basics CO 2 + H 2 O → C 6 H 12 O 6 + O 2 1) Light Reactions “photo” 2) Calvin Cycle “synthesis”

The Light Reactions Light energy excites electrons in chlorophyll Removal of electrons from H 2 O Formation of O 2 Electron Transport Chain Reduction of NADP+ to NADPH Proton Motive Force ATP Synthase to produce ATP

H+ ! Proton Motive Force

Try This Unlike in cellular respiration, the proton motive force generated by the light reactions in photosynthesis happens in three ways… Can you remember the three ways? 1. Electron transport chain powering the active transport of H+ into the thylakoid space 2. H+ produced in the thylakoid space from the splitting and oxidation of water 3. Removal of H+ from stroma during the reduction of NADP + to NADPH

The Light Reactions Light energy excites electrons in chlorophyll Removal of electrons from H 2 O Formation of O 2 (leaves stomata as a gas) Electron Transport Chain Reduction of NADP+ to NADPH Proton Motive Force ATP Synthase to produce ATP

The Light Reactions The whole point was to transfer light energy to chemical energy in the form of: electrons in NADPH ATP Why? To power carbon fixation in the Calvin Cycle…

The Calvin Cycle n o b ar ! n o i t a x i F C CO 2 enters as a gas through the stomata (openings) of the leaves Through the power of NADPH and ATP, CO 2 gets converted into an organic compound: a 3 -carbon sugar called glyceraldehyde-3 -phosphate (G 3 P) Can be converted to glucose, sucrose, starch, etc…

The whole point…
