Document Summary

Carbon dioxide + water glucose + oxygen + water: reduction of co2 to glucose, oxidation of water to oxygen gas, generation of water as by product. All eukaryotic mitochondria descend from one endosymbiosis. Organellar genes transfer to the nucleus or to other organelles over time. Transfer from the nucleus to the organelle is rare. Most organisms mitochondria retrain some functional genes. Synthesis: carbs, aa, fatty acids contains starch granules. Amyloplast contains starch granules slatoliths in root tips: plastid inheritance. Slow loss of genes to the host plant nucleus. Paternal in conifers and kiwi fruit: animal with chloroplasts elysia chlorotica, the green sea slug. Light rxns: store chemical energy for carbon fixation. Convert the energy in light to chemical energy in atp. Carbon fixation (light independent rxns: use nadph and atp to synthesize glucose from co2 gas. Light rxns require charge separation across a membrane.
