27. QOD: Every couple days, I water my little plant by the kitchen sink. What happens to that water? LG: Describe the process of photosynthesis and its importance to living things. Quiz: Thursday, on Photosynthesis

28. Electron Carrier Molecule Electron Carrier Molecules  Compound that can accept a pair of high energy electrons and transfer them, along with most of their energy to another molecule  One way the sunlight can be trapped in a chemical form and use it to build glucose for the plant cell  Example:  NADP + = accepts and holds 2 high energy electrons along with a hydrogen ion (H + )  When NADP + accepts 2 electrons and a H + it becomes NADPH

29. What is the process in which autotrophs trap the energy from the sun and store this energy in molecules such as glucose. A. Predation B. Metabolism C. Cell Respiration D. Photosynthesis

30. Which is not a function of NADPH? A. To carry energy for other organelles to do work B. To carry 2 high energy electrons C. To act as a carrier molecule D. To carry a hydrogen ion

31. Photosynthesis: Step 1 – Light-Dependent Reaction Takes place in Thylakoids. Chlorophyll absorbs light energy from the sun. Water is then split into hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O). The oxygen is released to the atmosphere. Produces NADPH and ATP for the light-independent reaction (step 2)! H2OH2O IN Sunlight Water ADP NADP+ OUT Oxygen ATP NADPH

32. Photosynthesis: Step 2 – Light-Independent Reaction Takes place in Stroma. Also called the Calvin Cycle or Dark Reactions. CO 2 (carbon dioxide) combines with hydrogen (H) to form C 6 H 12 O 6 (glucose). The NADPH made in the light- dependent reactions provides the Hydrogen for the glucose The ATP made in light-dependent reactions provides the energy for the Light independent reactions to occur. IN Carbon Dioxide ATP NADPH OUT Glucose NADP+ ADP
