Document Summary

Class 6 outcomes: characteristics of a catabolic versus anabolic pathway (relation to delta g) Energy is released in a catabolic pathway because overall the free energy of the final product(s) of the pathway is less than the free energy of the starting molecule(s) Anabolic pathways, which are often called biosynthetic pathway, require energy because overall the free energy of the product(s) of the pathway is greater than the free energy of the starting molecule(s: two phases of photosynthesiswhat links them. Light reaction and the calvin cycle linked by reactants and products. A group of pigment proteins form an antenna complex that surrounds a reaction centre. Light energy absorbed anywhere in the antenna complex is transferred to a special chlorophyll a molecule in the reaction centre. The absorbed light is converted to chemical energy when an excited electron from the chlorophyll a is transferred to a primary acceptor, also in the reaction centre.
