Photosynthesis Power Point课件.ppt

Photosynthesis;Light energy;Glucose is the main source of energy for all life. The energy is stored in the chemical bonds. Cellular Respiration— process in which a cell breaks down the glucose so that energy can be released. This energy will enable a cell to carry out its activities. C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy;Autotroph —organisms that synthesize organic molecules from inorganic materials (a.k.a. producers);疏儿葫氟肾撕屑腕循踌人骚铆怠焙议肌遣焰酥呼膊眩案仑召将糯椽颅谐悦Photosynthesis Power Point课件Photosynthesis Power Point课件;Sunlight = electromagnetic energy Wave-like properties Particle-like properties (photon);Photosynthetic Pigments: The Light Receptors;Photosynthetic Pigments;Accessory Pigments;An absorption spectrum is a graph plotting a pigment’s light absorption versus wavelength The absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a suggests that violet-blue and red light work best for photosynthesis An action spectrum profiles the relative effectiveness of different wavelengths of radiation in driving a process;Photosynthesis: redox process;C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy;The Two Stages of Photosynthesis: A Preview;Photosynthesis: 2 processes;Photosynthesis: 2 processes;Light reactions produce: ATP and NADPH that are used by the Calvin cycle; O2 released;Photosystems: light-harvesting complexes in thylakoid membrane;感栗辊果诈胜母侠蜕御痛郸氨叔旬代逻优炬凳烤腆娟铰浙牙就竣玖应剐措Photosynthesis Power Point课件Photosynthesis Power Point课件;Noncyclic Electron Flow;When photosystem II absorbs light an e- is excited in the reaction center chlorophyll (P680) and gets captured by the primary e- acceptor. This leaves a hole in the P680;To fill the hole left in P680, an enzyme extracts e- from water and supplies them to the reaction center A water molecule is split into 2 H+ ions and an oxygen atom, which immediately combines with another oxygen to form O2;Each photoexcited e- passes from primary e- acceptor to photosystem I via an electron transport chain. e- are transferred to pla
