3. Sunlight is made up of many different _______________ of light Your eyes “see” different wavelengths as different ___________ http://www.simontucket.com/_Portfolio/PortLarge/L_Il_Prism.jpg wavelengths colors

4. Visible light is part of electromagnetic spectrum ROYGBIV

5. pigments By: VanderWal Plants gather the sun’s energy with light absorbing molecules called _______________.

6. The main energy absorbing molecule in green plants is __________________ http://fig.cox.miami.edu/Faculty/Dana/chlorophyll.jpg CHLOROPHYLL a

7. CAROTENOID PIGMENTS appear ORANGE, RED, and YELLOW Carotene appears orange Xanthophyll appears yellow http://www.rnzih.org.nz/images/gardenimages/carrots_d.jpg http://www.webexhibits.org/causesofcolor/images/content/7C_chlorophyll_in_leaves.jpg

8. Pigments of photosynthesis Chlorophyll & other pigments –embedded in thylakoid membrane –arranged in a “photosystem” –structure-function relationship

9. Light: absorption spectra Photosynthesis gets energy by absorbing wavelengths of light –chlorophyll a absorbs best in red & blue wavelengths & least in green –other pigments with different structures absorb light of different wavelengths

10. WHY ARE PLANTS GREEN? We “see” reflected light Light wavelengths that are reflected bounce back to your eyes... so leaves “LOOK” green. Image modified from: http://www.visibledreams.net/Web/color/color_3.html

11. WHY DON’T WE SEE THE OTHER PIGMENTS? Carotenoids are usually hidden by the presence of chlorophyll

12. In the fall chlorophyll production shuts down and other pigments “show” http://sps.k12.ar.us/massengale/ecology_notes_bi.htm http://www.litzsinger.org/weblog/archives/email%20AutumnTrees5%20LREC%20102605.jpg

16. High energy electron carrier = _____________ NADP + NADP + + 2e - + H + → NADPH NICOTINAMIDE ADENINE DINUCLEOTIDE PHOSPHATE

17. Photosynthesis Light reactions –light-dependent reactions –energy production reactions convert solar energy to chemical energy Make ATP & NADPH Calvin cycle –light-independent reactions –sugar production reactions use chemical energy (ATP & NADPH) to reduce CO 2 & synthesize C 6 H 12 O 6

18. Photosystems of photosynthesis 2 photosystems in thylakoid membrane –Both have a REACTION CENTER CHLOROPHYLL a molecules PRIMARY ELECTRON ACCEPTOR –Surrounded by light-gathering “ANTENNA COMPLEX” Accessory pigments (chlorophyll b, carotenoids) –Collect light energy and pass it on to chlorophyll a –Photosystem II P 680 = absorbs 680nm wavelength red light –Photosystem I P 700 = absorbs 700nm wavelength red light

19. ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN Plastoquinone Cytochrome Plastocyanin Ferredoxin

20. Light Dependent reactions Electron Transport Chain –membrane-bound proteins in organelle –electron acceptors NADPH –proton (H + ) gradient across inner membrane Where’s the double membrane? –ATP synthase enzyme H+H+ H+H+ H+

21. LIGHT DEPENDENT REACTIONS ETC produces from light energy –ATP & NADPH go to Calvin cycle PS II absorbs light –excited electron passes from chlorophyll to “primary electron acceptor” –need to replace electron in chlorophyll –enzyme extracts electrons from H 2 O & supplies them to chlorophyll splits H 2 O O combines with another O to form O 2 O 2 released to atmosphere and we breathe easier!

22. MAKING ATP moves the electrons runs the pump pumps the protons forms the gradient drives the flow of protons through ATP synthase attaches P i to ADP forms the ATP H+H+ ADP + P i H+H+ H+H+ H+H+ H+H+ H+H+ H+H+ H+H+ H+H+ ATP

23. Noncyclic Photophosphorylation Light reactions elevate electrons in 2 steps (PS II & PS I) –PS II generates energy as ATP –PS I generates reducing power as NADPH

24. Cyclic photophosphorylation PS I doesn’t pass electron to NADP… it cycles back to ETC & makes more ATP, but no NADPH –coordinates light reactions to Calvin cycle –Important in maintaining proportion of ATP & NADPH for Calvin –Calvin cycle uses more ATP than NADPH X

25. Photophosphorylation noncyclic photophosphorylation cyclic photophosphorylation
