Basic bodily functions will become a challenge, exhaustion will become common and death is possible
This is a problem because the production of carbohydrates decreases
Can also be decreased using CAM plants which store water and allow for proper functioning
This is decreased using C4 photosynthesis (using C4 plants: less photo respiration and more sugar production)
Oxidative Phosphorylation: indirectly forms ATP by using a number of redox reactions
Substrate level phosphorylation: ATP is formed directly in the enzyme catalyzed reaction and a phosphate group is removed and combined with ADP to make ATP
Absorbed light and energy is used to drive electrons from water to generate NADPH/drive protons across a membrane - these protons go through ATP synthase and make ATP
CR is a catabolic reaction which breaks down molecules to make them even smaller
PS is an anabolic reaction which builds complex molecules from small molecules
hydrogen carriers (NADH and FADH2) release electrons for the ETC
Electrons from the ETC are taken up by
Electrons from the transport chain are moved using electron molecules/carriers
Calvin cycle is used to make glucose
Cellular Respiration: glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, krebs cycle and etc/chemiosmosis
Photosynthesis: light reactions and the calvin cycle (light dependant and light independent)
The products and reactants are flipped (Products of PS are reactants of CR and vice versa) - but energy type varies (sun/ATP)
This shows that these reactions are coupled as they have common substances
CR is in the cytoplasm and mitochondria
PS is within the chloroplast
Uses the energy in a hydrogen ion gradient to make ATP
Photosynthesis uses light energy to release ATP.
In cellular respiration food is converted into ATP
Photosystems in photosynthesis
PSII (P680): Chlorophyll A absorbs wavelength of 680nm
PSI (P700): Chlorophyll A absorbs wavelength of 700nm
They contain
Reaction Centre: absorbs light energy and releases excited electrons to primary electron acceptors to start the light reactions
Antenna complex: chlorophyll molecules which collect/channel energy and allows energy ti go to reaction centre
Made of chlorophyll, accessory pigments and proteins
Located in thylakoid membranes
The action spectrum shows effectiveness of wavelengths promoting photosynthesis
The absorbance spectrum shows the amount of light different wavelengths can absorb
Each wavelength is associated with a different color on the electromagnetic spectrum
Light-independent reaction
Energy of ATP and reducing power of NADPH are used to make an organic molecule which is high in energy
Light-dependent reaction
Light energy is trapped and used to generate ATP and NADPH
Concentration gradient powers ATP synthase by pumping protons down their concentration gradient
Still produce PMF for the protons to move and continue the process
Electrons in PS I pass backwards to cytochrome
This is called photophosphorylation as light is required for it to occur
Products: sugars and oxygen
Reactants: carbon dioxide, water and sunlight
Chlorophyll is found within the chloroplast
Cartenoids (orange and yellow pigments) can be used to absorb light
They lose this energy through heat
Mainly absorb light which would damage the chlorophyll
2 types
B: Aldehyde group: absorbs photons that A did not absorb properly (-COH attached to ring)
A: Methyl group: primary light absorbing pigment (CH3 is attached to ring)
Made up of a porphyrin ring and a long hydrocarbon tail
Absorbs light to begin the photosynthesis process
The green pigment
Chloroplast is a 2 layered membrane (stroma and thylakoid)
Thylakoids: the layer of membrane bound sacs
Stroma: the fluid-filled interior layer which surrounds the grana
Plants have 40-200 chloroplasts
Captures energy
Produces food
Transfers electrons to NAD+
Forms NADH and produces ATP
Transfers electrons from cytosolic NADH to FAD to produce FADH
very common
During this stage substrate level phosphorylation occurs
Which is a process where a phosphate group is removed from a substrate molecule
The group is then combined with ADP to form ATP
ATP=ADP+inorganic phosphate+energy
New ATP is moved to cytoplasm by facilitated diffusion where it is used to drive reactions requiring energy
Energy is used to phosphorylate ADP to form ATP through oxidative phosphorylation
Energy is released
H+ moves into the matrix through ATP synthase
Prodcuts: cardon dioxide, water and energy (ATP)
Reactants: suagrs and oxygen
ETC/Chemiosmosis (oxidative phosphorylation) occur in the inner mitochondrial membrane
Krebs cycle occurs in the mitochondrial matrix
Pyruvate oxidation occurs in the mitochondrial matrix
Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm
Releases energy
Breaks down food
