Process of putting together simple inorganic molecules to form complex organic molecules which requires light energy from chlorophyll from chloroplast
Photosynthesis is a
Generalized chemical formula for photosynthesis
Organisms that are capable of photosynthesis
self feeding organisms
light feeding organisms
Energy which plants use for photosynthesis. Located at the middle of the electromagnetic spectrum
Particles of light that carry light energy
They absorb or reflect certain colors of light
Compounds that are capable of absorbing light
A molecule that absorbs red & blue light which has a porphyrin ring that excite electrons when hit by light
these are airspaces in the plant leaf where oxygen and co2 are stored
Holes in plant leaf where oxygen, water, and CO2 enter and exit
The 3rd membrane of the chloroplast which has chlorophyll and where light reaction mainly occurs
The liquid part inside thylakoid
Stack of thylakoids
stroma
The first photosystem in light reaction where it contains 50% chlorophyll A and 50% chlorophyll B. P680 is its reaction center as it absorbs light wavelengths at 680 nanometers
The process where water is destroyed by light, resulting to O2 and H+
Photolysis occurs only on PSII
A type of electron flow in Light Reaction where no O2, NADPH is produced as there is no PSII. Only ATP is produced
The final electron acceptor in Photosystem I
The 1st part of the Calvin cycle where CO2 combines with RUBP to form 3-PGA and also reducing greenhouse gases in the process.
What enzyme facilitates the conversion of CO2 and RUBP to form 3-PGA. Either a friend or foe of plants undergoing C3 pathways. Ito ang may pasobra dahil special ka.
2nd part of the Calvin Cycle where 3-PGA is turned to G3P
Part of the Calvin Cycle where G3P does not form glucose and instead forms another RUBP to be used in another cycle
Where does the Calvin Cycle occur?
Product/s of the Calvin Cycle
Calvin cycle pathway which is the ideal and usual pattern of RUBP + CO2 ----RUBISCO----> 3-PGA.
Problem of the C3 Pathway that happens when it is too hot, thus, RUBISCO acts as oxygenase than carboxylase, resulting to plant destruction.
Calvin cycle pathway which uses temporal adaptation which stoma opens and closes depending on the time of the day. Usually the stoma opens in the evening when CO2 is abundant,
Calvin cycle pathway which uses spatial adaptation to store CO2 in their anatomy.
