Document Summary

Electrons become harder and harder to oxidize as it moves through the transport system (pii to cytochrome complex: until it gets more energy from light in photosystem i. Reduction of co2 in calvin cycle requires more atp that nadph: other e atp gives high energy phosphate, nadph carries electrons. Other energy requiring reactions in the chloroplast also require atp. Noncyclic electron transport procures approximately equal quantities of nadph and atp. Nadp+ reduced to nadph: light reactions. Nadph able to reduce other molecules: calvin cycle. Co2 + light + h2o ch2o + o2. To make glucose: 6co2 + 6h2o c6h12o6 + 6o2, carbon dioxide is reduced to glucose, water is oxidized to oxygen. Produces g3p which leaves the cycle: most g3p is recycled back into rupb so the cycle can continue. Carbon fixed to larger molecule each turn of the cycle. Kaden vanhelden: every 3 turns produces an excess 3 carbon sugar (g3p)
