Openstax Biology 2E Chapter 8 Study Questions
The light independent reactions are important because they : convert CO2 into glucose
What properties are expressed by wavelengths : 1 Visible light's wavelengths are between 400-740nm 2 Red absorbs little energy 3 Chlorophyll b absorbs a lot of energy from 460nm wavelengths
What is the flow of energy in order from source to end : sun→grass→cow→human
What statement shows the relationship among chloroplasts and mitochondria : both generate ATP by proton gradient
Light-dependent reactions build NADPH and oxygen by : oxidation and reduction
Organic molecules are made in the : Calvin cycle
P700 first transfers an electron through chlorophyll and a bound : quinone
If rubisco does not function properly, what process would be affected : ability to fix carbon
Protons from electron transport will amass in the : thylakoid lumen
Why is the third stage of the Calvin cycle called the regeneration stage : Because Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP), the molecule needed at the start of the cycle, is regenerated from Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P)
