1. Define Thylakoid - where the light reactions take place
2. Define Granum - a stack of thylakoids
3. Define Stroma - the liquid that is the site of the Calvin cycle
4. What is the site of the light reaction? - the thylakoids
5. What is the site of the Calvin cycle? - the stroma
6. Give the equation for photosynthesis 6H20 + 6CO2 + light --> C6H12O6 + 6H20
7. In the light reactions, what goes into the thylakoid? - water
and light
8. What is produced by the light reactions? - oxygen, NADPH
and ATP
9. What goes into the Calvin cycle? - energy and carbon
dioxide
10.What is produced by the Calvin cycle? - glucose
11.The splitting of water in the light reactions produces
oxygen.
12.As protons move through ATP Synthase, ATP is made.
13.The electrons in NADPH come from the electron transport
chain.
14.The main enzyme of the Calvin cycle is rubisco.
15.The Calvin cycle produces G3P which can be assembled
into glucose, maltose, etc.
16.Fixing carbon means making it usable.
17.What is photorespiration? - Occurs when we don’t have
enough carbon dioxide
18.Almost all plants are called C3 plants.
19.How do CAM plants deal with the problem of
photorespiration? - they only open their stomata at night
20.How do C4 plants deal with the problem of
photorespiration - they take the carbon dioxide, and use
enzymes to make a 4-carbon molecule. That 4 carbon molecule
will move to the bundle-sheath cells and then they can simply
introduce carbon dioxide from here.
