Photosynthysis
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2.
Calvin Cycle
3 Main Stages
Carbon Fixation
the process wherein photosynthetic organisms turn inorganic carbon into organic compounds
Reduction
The act of decreasing or reducing something
Regeniration
the process of renewal, restoration, and tissue growth that makes genomes, cells, organisms, and ecosystems resilient to natural fluctuations or events that cause disturbance or damage

in the overall structure of the chloroplast there are
many diffrent structures inside for example the stroma
and the thylakoid membrane which are cites for light and
dark reactions
the chloroplast is the main source of energy absorbtion
cyclic photophosphorylation, P700 is known to be the active reaction center. In the non-cyclic photophosphorylation, P680 is known to be the active reaction center. Electrons tend to pass in a cyclic manner. Electrons tend to pass in a non–cyclic manner.
Light Dependent Reactions
7 Steps
Energy is absorbed from the sun
Water is broken down.
Hydrogen ions are transported across the thylakoid membrane.
Energy is absorbed from the sun.
NADPH is produced from NADP+.
Hydrogen ions diffuse through the protein channel.
ADP becomes ATP.
