1
Photosynthesis AP Biology
2
The Equation 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + light C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 Chlorophyll required Water both consumed & produced
3
Chloroplasts Site of photosynthesis Structure Double membrane Thylakoids Granum (Stack of thylakoids) Stroma
4
Chloroplasts Relating structure to function Thylakoid space Allows for accumulation of H+ Segregates H+ from rest of organelle
5
Chloroplasts Relating structure to function Thylakoid membrane Contains photosystems & ETC
6
Chloroplasts Relating structure to function Large number of thylakoids Large surface area Large number of ETC and photosystems
7
Chloroplasts Relating structure to function Inner membrane Segregates chemical of Calvin- Benson cycle from cytosol

Photosynthesis
9
Light Reactions
10
Photosystem II captures light energy P680
11
Light Reactions Light energy passed to reaction center P680
12
Light Reactions 2 e- boosted to higher energy state P680
13
Light Reactions 2 e- passed through ETC to Photosystem I H+ gradient created; ATP produced P680 ATP P700
14
Light Reactions Photosystem I captures light energy Passes it to reaction center P680 P700 ATP
15
Light Reactions e- from P700 boosted to higher energy state P680 P700 ATP
16
Light Reactions e- move through ETC e- accepted by NADP+ P680 P700 NADP+ ATP
17
Light Reactions 2e- + 1H+ + NADP+ NADPH P680 P700 NADP+ NADPH ATP
18
Light Reactions Water split e- from water replace lost e- from P680 O 2 leaves P680 P700 NADPH H2OH2O O2O2 H+ ATP
19
Calvin Cycle
20
Rubisco fixes 6CO 2 to 6RuBP (5-C) RuBP = ribulose biphosphate 3PG (3-C) produced 3PG = 3-phosphoglycerate
21
Calvin Cycle 3PG converted to 12 G3P G3P = glyceraldehyde 3- phosphate 12 ATP used 12 NADPH used
22
Calvin Cycle 2 G3P exit cycle & used to make glucose Glucose used to make sugars & other carbohydrates
23
Calvin Cycle 10 G3P (3-C) used to make 6 RuBP (5-C) 6 ATP used
