Chloroplast Structure
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Tracking Atoms Through Photosynthesis: Scientific Inquiry Photosynthesis: 6 CO H 2 O + Light energy C 6 H 12 O O H 2 O What is oxidized? What is reduced? Cellular Respiration: C 6 H 12 O6 + 6O 2 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + ATP

Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Photosynthetic Pigments: The Light Receptors Pigments= Substances that absorb visible light Reflected Light = the colors we see
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings What pigments (wavelengths of light) are used to drive photosynthesis?
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings The absorption spectra of 3 types of pigments in chloroplasts
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Chlorophyll a - Main photosynthetic pigment Chlorophyll b- Accessory pigment

Light Reactions!
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings 2 Photosystems and 2 Electron Transport Chains
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Photosystem II 1. Light absorbed by chlorophyll chlorophyll 680
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Photosystem II 1. Light absorbed by chlorophyll chlorophyll electron excited caught by primary electron acceptor
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Photosystem II 3. Enzyme splits H2O O2 + H + + electrons Electrons pulled to chlorophyll 680
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Photosystem II and Electron transport chain 1 4. Electron pulled down electron transport chain 1= 5. Make ATP
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Photosystem I Electrons pulled by chlorophyll 700 in PS I
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Photosystem I 6. Light absorbed by chlorophyll in PS I chlorophyll 700
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Photosystem I and Electron transport chain 2 7. Excited electron caught by primary electron acceptor and pulled down electron transport chain 2
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Photosystem I and Electron transport chain 2 8. NADP electrons and 1 H + = NADPH

Concept 10.3 Calvin Cycle: – Uses ATP and NADPH to convert CO 2 to sugar – Occurs in the stroma
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
The Calvin cycle has 3 phases 1. Carbon fixation 2. Reduction 3. Regeneration of the CO 2 acceptor
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
The Calvin cycle: 1. Carbon fixation
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings 2. Reduction
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings 3. Regeneration of RuBP 1 5 3
