8-3 The Reactions of Photosynthesis
A. Light Dependant Reactions
1. Occurs :
a. across the thylakoid membrane and in the stroma
Go to Section:
2. Uses
a. H2O
b. ADP
3. To make:
i. Energy splits apart the water molecule into 2 –Hydrogen+ atoms and 1 Oxygen atom
ii. O find a friend to make O2 – gets released
iii. Extra 2e- collect sun’s energy
i. Picks up a phosphate to make ATP
ii. Goes on to Calvin Cycle
Go to Section:
c. Light energy
d. NADP+
i. From sun
ii. Turns electrons into high energy electrons
iii. Drives the light reactions
i. High energy electron carrier
ii. Picks up 2 e- and a H+ to become NADPH
Go to Section:
4. Steps in Light Reactions
a. Sun energy gets absorbed by pigments in Photosystem II
b. This energy splits H2O into 2H+ atoms and 1 oxygen atom, leaves 2 electrons to hang out and wait in PSII
c. Sun is absorbed by the pigments, the electrons get this energy
d. Electrons become high energy electrons
e. Travel down the Electron Transport Chain (ETC), losing energy as they travel down each protein
Go to Section:
f. Come to Photosystem I, light gets absorbed again, electrons become high energized again
g. High energy electrons need a special “carrier” to bring them to the Calvin Cycle
h. Get picked up by NADP+, which also picks up an H+ left over from H2O
i. NADP+ + 2e- + H+ NADPH
i. High energy electron carrier
ii. Heads to Calvin Cycle
J. ADP + P ATP at the ATP Synthase
i. heads to Calvin Cycle

c. NADPH
3. To make
i. Need energy to make glucose
ii. Gets broken back down into ADP
iii. Heads back to the light reactions to get used again there
i. Uses 6 molecules of CO2 to produce 1 molecule of glucose
i. High energy electrons help to make glucose
ii. Gets broken back down to NADP+ and returns to light reactions

1. What are the benefits of having a bank account?
To save money and earn interest.
2. What do you have to do if you need some of this money?
Go to the bank and take out the money you need.
3. What might your body do when it has more energy than it needs to carry out its activities?
Students will likely say that the body stores the energy.
4. What does your body do when it needs energy?
Student answers may include that energy is gotten from food.

1. A solar-powered calculator uses solar cells that are found in rows along the top of the calculator. Into what kind of energy is the light energy converted so that the calculator works?
They convert light energy into electrical energy.
2. Recall that plants use light energy from the sun to make food. Into what kind of energy is the light energy converted by plants?
Plants convert light energy into chemical energy.
3. Most plants, no matter what size or shape they are, have some parts that are green. Which parts of a plant are usually green?
Leaves are green, as are some stems.
4. What does the green color have to do with the plant’s ability to convert light energy into the energy found in the food it makes?
The green color is the pigment chlorophyll, which absorbs light energy from the sun and converts it to chemical energy in the process of photosynthesis.

Working with a partner, make a list of how this event will affect each of the following:
1. photosynthesis The rate of photosynthesis will decrease due to reduced sunlight.
2. plant life Plants will grow more slowly or die off due to decreased rate of photosynthesis.
3. animal life Animal populations will decrease after a while due to fewer plants for herbivores to eat. Fewer herbivores will eventually result in fewer carnivores. Also, less oxygen will be available.
4. human societies Human societies will have to adjust their eating habits as some food species die out.
