Document Summary

Process of using solar energy and water to produce food. Tiny openings in the leaves on of plants that allow water and. Light- dependent reaction: takes place in the thylakoid. Sunlight and water are used to produce atp, nadph. The light-independent reaction (calvin cycle): happens in the stroma, happens all the time. Be able to explain what happens during this process. Energy from electrons moving down the electron transport chain is used to create a proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane. Lower levels of sunlight cause chlorophyll to break down. Accessory pigments become more visible during the fall: be able to explain each step of the light-dependent reaction. Sunlight energy is absorbed by chlorophyll in ps2 and ps1. Electrons from ps2 enter the electron transport chain. Electrons from ps1 enter the electron transport chain and are donated to nadp, producing nadph. Water is split to re-supply electrons to ps2: be able to explain each step of the calvin-benson (light-independent reaction).
