Document Summary

Biol 1010 and biol 1011 - lecture 11. Use the following wireframe outline to make notes on the content presented in lecture 11. Life depends on absorption of light energy from sun. Not very efficient ~ 4% of light actually used. Get energy to make the food from light. In eukaryotes: in chloroplasts: has an outer and inner membrane + thylakoids (3rd) Photoautotrophs use water co2 and light energy. Photoautotrophs produce o2 and carbohydrate (with stores energy in bonds) Water is oxidized to oxygen (d) what are the two categories of reactions involved in photosynthesis: light dependent ( photo ) reactions light capture. Light energy comes in packets called photons that have wavelike characteristics. When a photon of light meets a molecules: photon may bounce off (=reflected, photon may pass through (=transmitted, photon may be taken in (=absorbed) Organisms need way to capture light energy. Photosynthetic organisms use special molecules called pigments. Most common pigment in all photoautotrophs is chlorophyll.
