Document Summary

6 co2 + 6 h2o 6o2 + c6h12o6: needs water, carbon dioxide, light. Involves removing e- from oxygen in water & redistributing them around carbons coming from co2: chloroplast are sites of photosynthesis in plants, reverse of respiration, 2 stages, light (light dependent) reactions, dark (light independent) reactions. Thylakoid membrane = site of light reaction made up of pigment molecules & associated proteins. Photosystems = large complexes of proteins & pigments that: are optimized to harvest light, play key role in light reaction. Photophosphorylation: finally, the electron goes back to p 700. It leaves plastocyanin to go impact p700 on ps 1 then go through ps1 chemiosmosis = process where atp is actually produced. Involves pumping of protons through channels in membranes, creating a h+ gradient. The only place to get electrons from is h2o: It makes a 6-carbon compound that splits into 2 molecules of a 3-carbon compound (3-pga)
