into the bin.
Then Answer◦ How do we see colors?
◦ Which color has the longest wavelength? The shortest?
◦ What pigments are in leaves? What colors do they reflect?
◦ What pigment do you think is in the graph?

Overview Of PhotosynthesisOverview Of Photosynthesis
ObjectivesObjectivesTo be able to list the inputs and
outputs of photosynthesis.
To be able to identify the structures in a chloroplast.
To be able to summarize light-dependent reactions.
PhotosynthesisPhotosynthesisLight energy ------> chemical energy
Used by autotrophs to produce food
All of our energy starts as light energy!◦Plants use sunlight to make food
animals eat plants other animals eat those animals
Photosynthetic OrganismsPhotosynthetic OrganismsGo through Photosynthesis to produce
GLUCOSE…
Autotrophs -“Producers” in the food web
Consist of plants, protists, cyanobacteria
PhotosynthesisPhotosynthesisOccurs in CHLOROPLASTS!!
Requires the pigment chlorophyll to capture energy from light.
Rearrange molecules of water and CO2 into new products
The ChloroplastThe Chloroplast
Structures within a Structures within a chloroplastchloroplast
Thylakoids: flattened sac-like membranes arranged
in stacks (stacks are called grana). Light-dependent reactions take place
here. Electron transport occurs in the
thylakoid membrane
Stroma: Fluid filled space outside the grana. Light-independent reactions take place
here.
Starting MaterialsStarting Materials1. Carbon Dioxide
2. Water
3. Sunlight
Products!Products!1. Oxygen
2. Glucose! (C6H12O6)
**Plants don’t immediately use all the glucose they make:◦ Stored as STARCH!!
Overall Chemical EquationOverall Chemical Equation
Glucose
Phase OverviewPhase Overview1) Light dependent Reactions
◦Light energy is absorbed and converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. (also produces Oxygen!)
2) Light Independent Reactions:(Calvin Cycle)◦CO2 ATP and NADPH are used to make
glucose. *Glucose is the basic building block for more complex sugars such as starch.*
Do NowDo NowHand in your lab into the bin. Please make
sure your name and your partners name is on it!
Also grab four pieces of construction paper from my desk. Any color(s) of your choosing!
Then answer:◦ What are the reactants and products of
photosynthesis?
◦ What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Light Dependent ReactionsLight Dependent ReactionsStep 1: Light energy reaches
photosystem II causing the water molecule to split
OHH
H2O
H+O2+
*H+ is released to the electron transport system.* O2 is given off as a byproduct.
Step 2: Light energy reaches photosystem I and electrons flow from photosystem II to photosystem I. (to replace the electrons lost)
Step 3: HYDROGEN IONS (protons) are pumped across the membrane into the thylakoid space as the electrons move through the electron transport chain.
Step 4: Electrons from photosystem I move to a protein called FERRODOXIN
**Ferrodoxin = “helper” protein**
Step 5: Ferrodoxin transfers electrons to NADP+ forming NADPH. (Electron Carrier)◦ We need this for the next part of
photosynthesis!
Step 6: Hydrogen ions move through the ATP SYNTHASE because of the concentration gradient, creating ATP. (Chemiosynthesis)
To Calvin Cycle
ChemosynthesisMechanism in which ATP is
produced as a result from the flow of electrons down a concentration gradient.◦Ex: Light reactions (H+ ions and ATP
synthase)

Functions like a sugar factory within a chloroplast◦ **Regenerates the starting material with each turn
Uses NADPH and ATP from Phase I (light dependent reactions)

Calvin Cycle Calvin Cycle Step 1:
Carbon dioxide molecules breakdown by combining with RuBP. (Carbon Fixation)
Calvin Cycle Calvin Cycle Step 2:
ATP and NADPH transfers energy and electrons to this molecule to create another three carbon molecule called G3P.
Calvin Cycle Calvin Cycle Step 3:
2 G3P molecules will leave the cycle to create glucose.
Calvin Cycle Calvin Cycle Step 4:
An enzyme (Rubisco) converts the remaining G3P molecules into RuBP.
◦ RuBP will combine with new carbon dioxide molecules to continue the cycle.
Calvin CycleCalvin CycleInputs
- 6 CO2 - 18 ATP- 12 NADPH
Outputs
- 2G3P (1 glucose- GOAL!)
- 18 ADP- 12 NADP+
Location: Stroma of the Chloroplast
QUICK!QUICK!Which contains more energy, one
molecule of NADP+ or one molecule of NADPH?
What is the name of the three carbon molecule that is a product of the Calvin Cycle?

Let’s try some examplesLet’s try some examplesHow many glucose molecules are
made from 108 ATP in the calvin cycle?
How many carbon dioxide molecules are needed to make 8 glucose molecules?
Factors that can affect the Factors that can affect the rate of photosynthesis!rate of photosynthesis!
Light Intensity (Amount)
Rainfall Amount
Temperature
CO₂ Concentration
Stomata can also affect the rate Stomata can also affect the rate of photosynthesis!of photosynthesis!
Stomata- openings (pores) on the underneath leaves that allow the exchange of carbon dioxide, oxygen, and water.
More water available will open up stomata, less water will cause them to close to reduce water loss.
