The equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H2O + Sunlight --> C6H12O6 + 6O2. Explain the role of each of the products (left side of the arrow) and explain where the products (right side of the arrow) came from.
In the Light Reaction of Photosynthesis, the sun excites electrons in pigment molecules in the photosystems. These excited electrons and (H+ ions) go through electron transport systems. Keep in mind that if this process continued as stated, the pigment molecules would run out of electrons, but fortunately there is a way in which the excited electrons are replaced. Explain how the electrons are ultimately replaced and what the important byproduct is.
The ultimate source of energy in our planet is sunlight. In the first stage of photosynthesis, light energy is captured in chlorophyll-containing reaction centers (PSII and PSI). What is the first step in the capture of light energy at PSII?
a. The energy carriers ATP and NADPH + H+ are synthesized.
b. CO2 reacts with the C5 sugar ribulose-1,5-bis-phosphate in the first step of the Calvin cycle.
c. Starch is synthesized.
d. H2O is photolyzed and its electrons are captured by special chlorophyll molecules.
e. Sucrose is synthesized from glucose and fructose.
