Overview of Photosynthesis
• Most autotrophs make organic compounds using photosynthesis.
• Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical
energy.

Overview of Photosynthesis
• Photosynthesis occurs in two phases.
• In the light-dependent phase, light energy is converted into chemical energy.
• In the light-independent phase, chemical energy used to synthesize glucose.

Phase One: Light Reactions
• The absorption of light is the first step in photosynthesis.
• Once light energy is captured, it can be stored as ATP or NAPDH.

Phase One: Light Reactions
Chloroplasts
• Organelles that capture light energy
• Contain two main compartments:
• Thylakoids: flattened saclike membranes
• Stacks of thylakoids are called grana.
• The fluid filled space outside the grana called the stroma.

Phase One: Light Reactions
Pigments
• Light-absorbing colored molecules called pigments are found in the thylakoid
membranes.
• Different pigments absorb specific wavelengths of light.
• Most common pigment in plants is chlorophyll.
• Plants also have accessory pigments.

Phase One: Light Reactions
Electron transport
• The thylakoid membrane has a large surface area, providing space for a
large number of electron transporting molecules and two types of protein
complexes called photosystems.
• Photosystems house the light-capturing pigments.

Phase One: Light Reactions
Electron transport
• Light energy excites electrons in photosystem II.
• This light energy causes a water molecule to split – releasing an electron into
the electron transport system, a hydrogen ion (H+ or proton) into the
thylakoid space, and oxygen as a waste product.

Phase One: Light Reactions
Electron transport
• The activated electrons move from photosystem II to an acceptor molecule in
the thylakoid membrane.
• The electron acceptor molecule transfers the electrons along a series of
electron carriers to photosystem I.

Phase One: Light Reactions
Electron transport
• In the presence of light, photosystem I transfers the electrons to a protein
called ferrodoxin.
• Ferrodoxin transfers the electrons to the carrier molecule NADP+, forming
the energy storage molecule NADPH.

Phase One: Light Reactions
Electron transport
• ATP is produced in conjunction with the electron transport system through
chemiosmosis.
• ATP is produced through the flow of electrons down a concentration gradient.
• The breakdown of water provides the necessary protons for ATP synthesis.

Phase Two: The Calvin Cycle
• In the second phase of photosynthesis, called the Calvin cycle, energy is
stored in organic molecules such as glucose.

Phase Two: The Calvin Cycle
• The first step of the Calvin cycle is called carbon fixation.
• CO2 molecules combine with 5-carbon molecules to form 3-
phosphoglycerate (3-PGA)
![Page 17: Light energy is trapped and converted into chemical …ddamm.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/9/8/13981972/bio_8.2...Light energy is trapped and converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022040910/5e846f75ec21c031c35b4986/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
PhotosynthesisCopyright © McGraw-Hill Education
Phase Two: The Calvin Cycle
• In the second step, chemical energy stored in ATP and NADPH is transferred
to the 3-PGA to form glyceraldehyde 3-phospate (G3P).

Phase Two: The Calvin Cycle
• In the third step, some G3P molecules leave the cycle to be used for the
production of glucose and other organic compounds.

Phase Two: The Calvin Cycle
• In the fourth and final step, an enzyme called rubisco converts the remaining
G3P molecules into 5-carbon molecules called ribulose 1,5-bisphospates
(RuBP).
• These molecules combine with new CO2 and continue the cycle.

Alternative Pathways
C4 plants
• The C4 pathway allows plants to maintain photosynthesis while reducing
water loss.
• Significant structural modification in the arrangement of cells within the
leaves – separate CO2 uptake from location of Calvin cycle

Alternative Pathways
CAM plants
• Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is found in desert plants.
• Collect CO2 at night and store it in organic compounds
• During the day, release CO2 from organic compounds for the light-dependent
cycle of photosynthesis
