What is released by the cell to produce ATP
Energy in organic molecules
Photosynthesis
cells synthesizing organic mols from inroganic mol using energy
Photosynthesis Equation
Sun + 6H2O + 6CO2 —→ C6H1206 + 6O2
Photosynthesis occurs in the..
chloroplast
Chloroplast contains
chlorophyll
Thylakoids
light dependent reactions take place here
Stroma
light independent reactions take place here
Photolysis
separation of molecules by the action of light
The oxygen produced by the photolysis of water is___
Waste for the plant
Chromatography
technique which mixtures can be separated
How to calculate RF value
distance it travels/distance solvent travels
electromagnetic spectrum
all possible wavelengths of radiation
What spectrum of light can be seen
700-400 nm
pigment
any substance that absorbs light
Most common type of accesory pigment…
carotenoids
Carotenoids mostly come in which to colors
yellow , orange
Main function of carotenoids
extend the range of light plants can absorb for photosynthesis
absorption spectrum
wavelength of light absorbed by each pigment
Action spectrum
amount of photosynthesis at each wavelenght
What are the 3 limiting factors of photosynthesis
Tempature, Light intensity, and CO2 concentration
How does temp limil photosynthesis
high temp can denature enzymes
how can light intensity limit photosynthesis
more chlorophyll is photo activated and then plateu
how can CO2 limit photosynthesis
More carbon and then plateu
