Document Summary

One breaks down sugars to liberate energy. Capture co2 and incorporate it into organic molecules. One captures energy and stores it in sugars. Provide the energy needed to drive those synthesis reactions. Thylakoid membrane separates lumen of the thylakoid. Electron passes through etc back to psii reaction center. Used by plants and algae to supplement atp production at cost of. Make atp and reduce nadp+ to nadph. To maintain carbon balance 3 consecutive turns. Oxidation by the addition of o2 leads to. Some plants have evolved to capture co2 by another mechanism. Use pep carboxylase to add co2 to pep to form. 4 carbon molecule has greater affinity for co2 and no oxidase activity. Two major pathways utilize pep carboxylase for carbon fixation. C4 plants spatially separate c4 and c3 pathways in different cells. Cam plants temporally separate c4 (night) and c3 (day) pathways. Requires the light-dependent reactions to occur first.
