1. DO NOW-Socrative (rm )
What is the difference between an autotroph and a heterotroph?
Why do plants need sunlight?
What gases are exchanged between plants and animals?

2. Overview Of Photosynthesis

3. Objectives
To be able to list the inputs and outputs of photosynthesis.
To be able to identify the structures in a chloroplast.
To be able to summarize light-dependent reactions.

4. Photosynthesis Light energy ------> chemical energy
Used by autotrophs to produce food
All of our energy starts as light energy!
Plants use sunlight to make food animals eat plants other animals those animals

5. Photosynthetic Organisms
Go through Photosynthesis to produce GLUCOSE…
Autotrophs
“Producers” in the food web
Consist of plants, protists, cyanobacteria

6. Overall Chemical Equation

7. Phase Overview 1) Light dependent 2) Light Independent (Calvin Cycle)
Light energy is absorbed and converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. (also produces Oxygen!)
2) Light Independent (Calvin Cycle)
CO2 ATP and NADPH are used to make glucose.
*Glucose is the basic building block for more complex sugars such as starch.*

8. Phase Overview
Glucose

9. The Chloroplast

10. Structures within a chloroplast
Thylakoids:
flattened sac-like membranes arranged in stacks (stacks are called grana).
Light-dependent reactions take place here.
Electron transport occurs in the thylakoid membrane
Stroma:
Fluid filled space outside the grana.
Light-independent reactions take place here.

11. Light Dependent Reactions
Step 1: Light energy reaches photosytem II causing the water molecule to split O H H+ O2 +
*H+ is released to the electron transport system.
* O2 is given off as a byproduct.
H2O

12. Step 2: Light energy reaches photosystem I and electrons flow from photosystem II to photosystem I. (to replace the electrons lost)

13. Step 3: Hydrogen ions (protons) are pumped across the membrane as the electrons fall. (think of a hyper child losing energy)

14. Step 4: Electrons from photosystem I move to a protein called ferrodoxin.
**Ferrodoxin = “helper”
protein**

15. Step 5:. Ferrodoxin transfers electrons to NADP+ forming NADPH
Step 5: Ferrodoxin transfers electrons to NADP+ forming NADPH. (We need this for the next part of photosynthesis!)

16. Step 6: Hydrogen ions move through the ATP Synthase because of the concentration gradient, creating ATP. (Chemiosmosis)
To Calvin Cycle

17. Chemosynthesis
Mechanism in which ATP is produced as a result from the flow of electrons down a concentration gradient.
Ex: Light reactions (H+ ions and ATP synthase)

18. Light Dependent Reactions
Lets see it altogether now!

19. Review! What goes into a light dependent reaction?
What is the goal of a light dependent reaction?
What is given off as a byproduct?
What is the name of the protein needed in a light dependent reaction?

20. Do Now In what part of the chloroplast do light reactions occur?
What are the outputs of light-dependent reactions?
What is the name of the cycle in light-independent reactions?

21. Objectives List the inputs and outputs of the Calvin Cycle
Define chemiosmosis and it’s role in photosynthesis.
Summarize light – independent reactions
Perform chromatography to identify the pigments of green leaves.

22. Calvin Cycle Takes place in the stroma
Uses NADPH and ATP from Phase I (light dependent reactions)
Needs CO2!!!
Produces GLUCOSE 

23. Calvin Cycle Functions like a sugar factory within a chloroplast
**Regenerates the starting material with each turn

24. Calvin Cycle Inputs ATP NADPH CO2 Outputs
- G3P (2 of these create a glucose molecule)

25. Calvin Cycle

26. Alternative Pathways
Light and Water can limit the amount of photosynthesis a plant can perform.
Some plants develop alternate pathways to maximize energy conservation.
Ex: CAM and C4 plants.

28. Flip Books
Please use the rest of the period to work on your flip books. You will have a quiz on photosynthesis next __________.
Take a review sheet! You are on your own for jeopardy, you can look at it at home.
