New cards
What does the light-harvesting complex do?
Captures light and funnels energy to the reaction center
2
New cards
What pigment is central to the reaction center?
Chlorophyll a
3
New cards
. What happens to the excited electron in the reaction center?
It is transferred to the primary electron acceptor
4
New cards
How is the lost electron in PSII replaced?
By splitting water (photolysis)
5
New cards
What’s the difference between PSII and PSI reaction centers?
Thylakoid
PSII = P680, PSI = P700
PSI: makes NADP
PSII: makes oxygen
6
New cards
. Does the Calvin Cycle need light?
No, but it depends on ATP/NADPH made by light-dependent reactions
Use chemical energy to fix carbon into sugars
