Document Summary

Light reactions in thylakoids: convert light energy into chemical energy sored in nadph and atp, water is the first e- donor to the electron transport chain, h2o gets oxidized to o2. Dark reactions: taking co2 and making it into sugars, they need nadph and atp from the light reactions, point make carbohydrates from co2. Atp synthesis the cf1/cf0 can make atp in vitro all done in dark! If you see something as green, the wavelength green is reflected. Live functioning chloroplasts use the light, it"s passed along! Dead ones have no one to transfer the energy to, it will emit the light as heat and florescence. Absorption spectrum: you can measure the amount of light absorbed, different chlorophyll have diff wavelength profiles, a pure compound will give you an indicative wavelength. If you shine green light on a green plant, it will die, it (cid:272)a(cid:374)"t absorb green wavelength its reflected: what wavelengths are absorbed best by carotene, anything except orange.
