THINGS TO COVER Statement U. 1 Guidance Photosynthesis is the production of carbon compounds in cells using light Energy. Students should know that visible light has wavelengths between 400 and 700 nanometres, but they are not expected to recall the wavelengths of specific colours of light. U. 2 Visible light has a range of wavelengths with violet the shortest wavelength and red the longest. U. 3 Chlorophyll absorbs red and blue light most effectively and reflects green light more than other colours. U. 4 Oxygen is produced in photosynthesis from the photolysis of water. U. 5 Energy is needed to produce carbohydrates and other carbon compounds from carbon dioxide. U. 6 Temperature, light intensity and carbon dioxide concentration are possible limiting factors on the rate of photosynthesis. J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 3
THINGS TO COVER Statement Guidance A. 1 Changes to the Earth’s atmosphere, oceans and rock deposition due to photosynthesis. S. 1 Drawing an absorption spectrum for chlorophyll and an action spectrum for photosynthesis. S. 2 Design of experiments to investigate the effect of limiting factors on photosynthesis. Water free of dissolved carbon dioxide for photosynthesis experiments can be produced by boiling and cooling water. Separation of photosynthetic pigments by chromatograph (Practical 4) Paper chromatography can be used to separate photosynthetic pigments but thin layer chromatography gives better results. S. 3 NOS 3. 1 Experimental design J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 4
U. 1 PHOTOSYNTHESIS � Photosynthesis is used by producers to make chemical energy. � Plants and some other organisms (eg. algae) photosynthesise. � Photosynthesis is the production of carbon compounds in cells using light energy. � Photosynthesis involves the conversion of light energy into chemical energy (ATP) J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 5
U. 2 LIGHT ENERGY � Light from the Sun is composed of a range of wavelengths (colours) Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet � Light contains a range of wavelengths: ◦ shortest – blue/violet ≈ 400 nm ◦ longest - red ≈ 700 nm J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 6
U. 3 ABSORPTION OF LIGHT � Chlorophyll is the main photosynthetic pigment. � It is located in the chloroplasts. � Chlorophyll absorbs light in the light-dependent stage of photosynthesis � There are different types of chlorophyll: ◦ main one = chlorophyll a � When chlorophyll absorbs light energy, it releases electrons which are used to make ATP (chemical energy) J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 7
U. 3 ABSORPTION OF LIGHT � Chlorophyll absorbs mainly red and blue light � Chlorophyll does not absorb (reflects) green light � Explains why most leaves are green � Absorption spectrum: The spectrum of light absorbed by chlorophyll � Action spectrum: The spectrum of light used for photosynthesis J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 8
U. 3 S. 1 ABSORPTION OF LIGHT � DRAW! J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 9
LIGHT-DEPENDENT REACTIONS U. 4 � Light energy is required for the first stage of photosynthesis � Light energy is used to: ◦ produce ATP ◦ to split water molecules to form O 2 and H+ (=photolysis) J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 10
LIGHT-INDEPENDENT REACTIONS U. 5 � ATP and hydrogen (from the photolysis of water) are used to fix carbon dioxide to make organic molecules. � This allows for the production of more complex organic molecules (eg. sugars) � These organic molecules can then be stored to use in cellular respiration as required.

U. 6 LIMITING PHOTOSYNTHESIS � Temperature, light intensity and carbon dioxide concentration are possible limiting factors on the rate of photosynthesis. � This means that their levels can impact upon the rate of photosynthesis. J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 13
U. 6 LIMITING PHOTOSYNTHESIS � Temperature: ◦ Enzymes controlling photosynthesis are temperature sensitive ◦ Increase temp faster reaction - until enzymes denature J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 14
U. 6 LIMITING PHOTOSYNTHESIS � CO 2 concentration: ◦ Increase [CO 2] increase rate ◦ Rate will plateau eventually when enzymes are working at maximum efficiency J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 15
U. 6 LIMITING PHOTOSYNTHESIS � Light intensity: ◦ More light, more photosynthesis ◦ Rate will plateau eventually when enzymes are working at maximum efficiency ◦ Different wavelengths of light will have different effects on the rate of photosynthesis J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 16
EXPERIMENTS OF LIMITING FACTORS OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS S. 2 � Oxygen Production: ◦ Investigate formation of air bubbles from submerged plant ◦ Count number or volume of bubbles in time period ◦ Data logger measuring dissolved oxygen J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 17
EXPERIMENTS OF LIMITING FACTORS OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS S. 2 � CO 2 uptake: ◦ p. H of water will rise as CO 2 is absorbed from water ◦ Investigate p. H change in water with submerged plant J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 18
EXPERIMENTS OF LIMITING FACTORS OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS � Change S. 2 in Biomass (indirect): ◦ Investigate weight change in a dehydrated plant �Dehydration ensures the change in biomass reflects a change in organic matter and not water content ◦ Investigate glucose production by determining the change in starch levels in a plant �Starch can be identified via iodine staining and quantified using a colorimeter J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 19
INFLUENCE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS ON EARTH’S ATMOSPHERE, OCEANS & ROCKS A. 1 � The first photosynthetic organisms appeared on Earth ~3. 5 billion years ago. � This was followed by the “Oxygen Catastrophe”, as a result of the large volume of oxygen gas being produced. � This resulted in the oxidation of some elements dissolved in the ocean water – eg. iron. � These would have then precipitated, and become part of the rock layers. J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY Iron-banded formations 20
INFLUENCE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS ON EARTH’S ATMOSPHERE, OCEANS & ROCKS A. 1 � At 1% oxygen, eukaryotic metabolism became possible. � As they increased, metabolic efficiency increased and aerobic organisms proliferated. � As the levels in the upper atmosphere increased further, sunlight would have acted on it and formed ozone, changing the conditions on Earth. � Oxygen levels kept rising, becoming close to 20% of the atmosphere ~750 -630 mya J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 21
CHROMATOGRAPHY � Paper chromatography can be used to separate photosynthetic pigments. � Thin layer chromatography gives better results. � https: //youtu. be/e 3 l. Rt 9 Xd. V 0 s J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 22
CHROMATOGRAPHY � TLC has 2 phases: a mobile phase and a stationary phase � The mobile phase uses a liquid solvent (eg. acetone, alcohol, ether – not water) � The solvent moves up the TLC plate by capillary action, taking the sample/mixture with it. � The components of the mixture will travel at different speeds due to their size/density, causing them to separate J WERBA – IB BIOLOGY 23
