Put them on the reactants side, then rearrange the atoms and energy units to show the products. Remember: Atoms last forever (so you can rearrange atoms into new molecules, but can’t add or subtract atoms). Energy lasts forever (so you can change forms of energy, but energy units can’t appear or go away). Chemical change Reactants Products Water Carbon dioxide

16. Three facts about matter: 1.Atoms last forever 2.Atoms make up the mass of all materials. 3.Atoms are bonded to other atoms in molecules. Two facts about energy: 1.Energy lasts forever. Energy is never created or destroyed in chemical changes. 2.Energy can be transformed from one form to another. Some common forms of energy include: – Heat – Light – Motion – Chemical energy: energy stored in bonds of molecules

19. Overview of Photosynthesis Photosynthesis can be divided into two stages: Light Reactions and Calvin Cycle –In the light reactions, light energy is converted to chemical energy, which is temporarily stored in ATP and the energy carrier molecule NADPH. –In the Calvin Cycle, organic compounds are formed using CO 2 and the chemical energy stored in ATP and NADPH.

24. Capturing Light Energy Light and Pigments –White light from the sun is composed of an array of colors called the visible spectrum. –Pigments absorb certain colors of light and reflect or transmit the other colors. Chloroplast Pigments –Located in the membrane of the thylakoids of chloroplasts are several pigments, including chlorophylls (such as chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b) and carotenoids.

29. Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Converting Light Energy To Chemical Energy The pigments are grouped in clusters of a few hundred molecules in the thylakoid membrane. Each cluster and the proteins that the pigment molecules are embedded in are referred to collectively as a photosystem. By absorbing light, pigment molecules in photosystem I and photosystem II acquire some of the energy carried by the light. e–e–

32. Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Converting Light Energy To Chemical Energy In each photosystem, the acquired energy is passed quickly to other pigment molecules until it reaches a specific pair of chlorophyll a molecules. The acquired energy forces electrons to enter a higher energy level in the two chlorophyll a molecules of photosystem II. These energized electrons are said to be “excited.” The excited electrons have enough energy to leave the chlorophyll a molecules. The acceptor of these electrons from photosystem II is a molecule called the primary electron acceptor, which donates the electrons to the electron transport chain. As the electrons move from molecule to molecule in this chain, they lose most of the acquired energy. The energy they lose is used to move protons into the thylakoid.

33. Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Converting Light Energy To Chemical Energy Making ATP in Light Reactions – An important part of the light reactions is the synthesis of ATP. During chemiosmosis, the movement of protons through ATP synthase into the stroma releases energy, which is used to produce ATP

34. Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Converting Light Energy To Chemical Energy Replacing Electrons in Light Reactions – Electrons from photosystem II replace electrons that leave photosystem I. Replacement electrons for photosystem II are provided by the splitting of water molecules. – Oxygen produced when water molecules are split diffuses out of the chloroplast and then leaves the plant.

39. Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Calvin Cycle and Carbon Fixation The ATP and NADPH produced in the light reactions drive the second stage of photosynthesis, the Calvin cycle. In the Calvin cycle, CO 2 is incorporated into organic compounds, a process called carbon fixation. The Calvin cycle, which occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast, is a series of enzyme-assisted chemical reactions that produces a three-carbon sugar.

In the Calvin cycle, CO 2 is incorporated into organic compounds, a process called carbon fixation. The Calvin cycle, which occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast, is a series of enzyme-assisted chemical reactions that produces a three-carbon sugar. Most of the three-carbon sugars (G3P) generated in the Calvin cycle are converted to a five-carbon sugar (RuBP) to keep the Calvin cycle operating. But some of the three- carbon sugars leave the Calvin cycle and are used to make organic compounds, in which energy is stored for later use.
