Document Summary

The energetic, metabolic & cellular basis of life. Photosystem reaction centers contain special chlorophyll a molecules, both are chlorophyll a. P680 and p700 are both chlorophyll a molecules. Absorption difference due to association with proteins and therefore electron distribution. Photosystem ii uses light energy to split h20 https://onedrive. live. com/edit. aspx/documents/biology?cid=4612573e81e7633b&id=documents&wd=target%281. 1%20october. one%7c788e3535-300c-4b77 1/14. P680* is in excited state, then oxidized to p680+ Splitting of h2o carried out by oxygen evolving complex (manganese-oxygen-calcium cluster) Surprisingly, the mechanism of water-splitting is still not well understood. Oxygenic photosynthesis is the result of development of photosystem ii https://onedrive. live. com/edit. aspx/documents/biology?cid=4612573e81e7633b&id=documents&wd=target%281. 1%20october. one%7c788e3535-300c-4b77 2/14. Biology - microsoft onenote online: electrons passed along electron transport chain, light energy absorbed by photosystem i. Nadp+ reduced to nadph (using 2 electrons and 1 proton: proton gradient drives atpase synthase complex: adp +pi --> atp, light energy is absorbed by photosystem ii. Rubisco: the most important enzyme in the biosphere https://onedrive. live. com/edit. aspx/documents/biology?cid=4612573e81e7633b&id=documents&wd=target%281. 1%20october. one%7c788e3535-300c-4b77 3/14. Catalyzes co2 fixation - adds co2 to rubp to form 3-c carbohydrate (3pg)
