8-3 The Reactions of
Photosynthesis
The difference is night and day!
Interactive: pgs. 208-214
Inside a Chloroplast
• Thylakoids
– Saclike membranes
– Arranged in stacks called grana
– Organize the chlorophyll into clusters
called photosystems
• Stroma
– Area outside the thylakoid membrane

Electron Carriers
(The electron transport chain)
• Sunlight gives energy to electrons in the
chlorophyll of a plant
• NADP+
– A carrier molecule
– Can carry 2 high energy electrons and 1 H+
• NADPH
– Results from adding 2 electrons
– Traps the energy in chemical form
• Can be used by chemical reactions in the cell
Light Dependent Reactions
• In the thylakoid membrane of the
chloroplasts
• Use energy from light to make O
• Converts ADP to ATP
• Converts NADP+ to NADPH
5 Steps
(Light Dependent Reactions)
• 1. Photosystem II- absorbs light and breaks up water
• 2. Electron Transport Chain- moves high energy eand transports H+ inside the thylakoid
• 3. Photosystem I uses the e- & H+ to turn NADP+ into
NADPH
• 4. Hydrogen Ion movement makes the outside - and
inside +.
• 5. ATP formation- H+ move outside the membrane
and ATP synthase creates ATP.

The Calvin Cycle
• Uses ATP and NADPH made during the
light dependent reactions
• Makes High Energy Sugars like
Glucose
• Does not require light
• Occurs in the Stroma
4 Steps
• 6 CO2 molecules + 6 C5 molecules = 12 C3
• The resulting 12 C3 molecules are converted to
higher energy molecules by using ATP and NADPH
• 2 of the C3 high energy molecules are used to make
sugars, lipids, amino acids for metabolism and
growth
• The remaining 10 C3 molecules are recycled back
into 6 C5 molecules to start the cycle again.
Factors that Affect the Rate of
Photosynthesis
• Amount of Water
• Temperature
– Photosynthetic enzymes function best at 035 degrees C
• Light Intensity
