We're going to start off with a bit of review from the last video.
1

What is the main goal of photosynthesis?

1

Which of the following is true about photosynthesis (select all that apply)?

1

Sort the following into the two major steps of photosynthesis:

  • Converts water into oxygen
  • Is fueled by ATP
  • Makes some electron carriers
  • Directly needs light
  • Converts carbon dioxide into glucose
  • Occurs across the thylakoid membrane
  • Involves ATP synthase
  • Makes a small amount of ATP
  • Does not directly require light
  • Occurs in the stroma
  • Uses the hydrogen ions/electrons from the electron carriers
  • Involves and electron transport chain
  • Uses the hydrogens in water to make a concentration gradient
  • Light Reactions
  • Dark Reactions/Calvin Cycle
1

What common pigment absorbs light (reflecting green light) and is found in the thylakoid membrane?

1

Where in this diagram is there a high concentration of hydrogen ions?

1

Where in this diagram do the dark reactions/Calvin Cycle occur?

The following questions are all free response questions. Once you answer each question it will automatically mark them as "wrong" because you haven't written exactly what I wrote. Once you click submit compare your answers to mine (they should show up after you click submit). Be thoughtful in your answers (think about them as practice test questions). I wrote 4-10 sentences in my sample answers for each question.
1

In your own words explain the Light Reactions in photosynthesis (as in the process that occurs).

1

In your own words explain the Dark Reactions/Calvin Cycle (as in the process that occurs).

1

What is the primary function of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis?

1

Which molecule absorbs energy from sunlight in the light-dependent reactions?

1

What is the end product of the electron transport chain in the light reactions of photosynthesis?

1

In what part of the chloroplast do the light-dependent reactions take place?

1

What are the hydrogen ions and electrons pulled off of in the light reactions?

1

What is the primary function of the Dark Reactions/Calvin Cycle?

1

The dark reactions directly require light to occur.

1

Where do the hydrogen ions and electrons for the glucose come from originally?

1

Which of the following is used in the Dark Reactions/Calvin Cycle from the light reactions?

1

What molecule is converted into glucose in the Dark Reactions/Calvin Cycle?
