Photosynthesis PhotosynthesisOverview Photosynthesis (光合作用) Many plants and unicelluer （single celled ） organism make their own food by photosynthesis. Photolight Synthesisputting together • Photosynthesis occurs only in the chlorophyll- containing cells of green plants, algae, and certain protists 原生生物and bacteria. Oxygen • Organisms which can perform photosynthesis are Light called photoautotrophs(光能自养生物). • It is a process that converts light energy into Glucose Carbon dioxide chemical energy that is stored in the molecular bonds. • Cellular respiration exergonic 放能的 Photosynthesis endergonic 吸能的 Water Chloroplast (叶绿体) In plants and algae, photosynthesis takes place in organelles called chloroplasts chloros green plastesthe one who forms Chloroplasts are a double membrance bound organelle Chloroplast envelope (membrane) • Phospholipid inner membrane • Phospholipid outer membrane • Intermembrane space Stroma 基质within the membrane, aqueous fluid Grana 基粒stacks of thylakoids Thylakoids 类囊体 Lumen-- inside of thylakoid Thylakoids membranethe site of photosynthesis Others Nucleoid, Ribosome, Plastoglobulus, Starch Granule The overall reaction 12H O + 6CO + Energy(Light) → C H O (glucose) + 6O + 6H O 2 2 6 12 6 2 2 Complex series of reactions that takes place in two stages 1.The light reactions light thylakoid 1 membrane de
