40 views2 pages

Document Summary

Conversion of co2 & carbohydrates requires 2 different processes: light reactions & Calvin cycle: light rxn captures light by pigment molecules & utilization of energy of nadph & Atp: e- needed to synthesis nadph comes from oxidation of h20 resulting in release of o2. Calvin cycle, e- & h+ carried by nadph & energy of atp hydrolysis are used to convert. Light & calvin cycle takes place in chloroplasts. Chloroplasts have 3 departments: outer membrane, inner membrane, intermembrane space. Thylakoid membrane: i(cid:374) stro(cid:373)a, there"s a membrane system called thylakoids which are flat discs. Thylakoid lumen: space enclosed by thylakoid membrane. Thylakoid membrane have components that carry light rxn: proteins, pigments, etc & To be used as energy, photons of light must be absorbed by molecules. Absorption occurs when energy of photon is transferred to e- within molecules, moving it from ground state to excited state. In excited state, e- further away from nucleus contains more energy.
