Q) Start with a photon of sunlight and a carbon atom in a molecule of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere: model/diagram their pathway from that starting point to their final destination as a glucose molecule that is used for energy in a cell in the plant root. Following your diagram/model, provide a written explanation for what your diagram/model depicts. Make sure both your model and explanation are clear, concise, and have the appropriate level of detail to clearly demonstrate you understand photosynthesis, cellular respiration, and the movement of mass and energy in plants.
Q40. Both Photosynthesis and respiration rely on electron transport.
Although there are many differences, what do these electron transport chains have in common?
In both, the electron donor (water in the case of photosynthesis, NADH in the case of respiration) is a strong reducing agent
In both, the proteins which shuttle the electrons (Plastoquinone in photosynthesis, Ubiquinone in the case of respiration) are oxidized and reduced
In both, electrons move spontaneously from high to low redox potential.
In both, chemiosmosis results in the production of ATP
A. 1,2 and 3
B. 1 and 3
C. 2 and 4
D. 4 only
E. All of 1, 2, 3 and 4 are correct
MAKE CONNECTIONS How do the CO2 moleculesused in photosynthesis reach and enter the chloroplastsinside leaf cells? (See Concept 7.2.)
