Document Summary

Heterotrph (must eat food, organic molecules from their environment, to sustain life. Autotroph (make organic molecules from inorganic sources) cyanobacteria) Photoautotroph (use light as a source of energy; green plants, algae, Energy within light is captured and used to synthesize carbohydrates. Co2 is reduced; h2o is oxidized; energy from light drives this endergonic reaction. Co2 + h2o + light energy c6h12o6 + o2 + h2o. Biosphere- regions on the surface of the earth and in the atmosphere where living organisms exist. Largely driven by the photosynthetic power of green plants. Cycle where cells use organic molecules for energy and plants replenish those molecules using photosynthesis (plants also produce oxygen) Organelles in plants and algae that carry or photosynthesis. Majority of photosynthesis occurs in leaves in mesophyll. Stomata- carbon dioxide enters and oxygen exits leaf. Light reactions (uses light energy; takes place in thylakoid membranes; produces. Calvin cycle (occurs in stroma; uses atp and nadph to incorporate co2 into organic molecules)
