Entry Task (5 minutes) • In food chains, the _______________, organisms such as bacteria and fungi, break down dead material into nutrients for plants. • The biochemical process known as __________ produces energy-rich glucose and oxygen.) • 2. Write out the basic equation for cellular respiration tell me the “INPUTS” and the “OUTPUTS”. • ___________: The sugar, whose chemical formula is C6H12O6, that is created by photosynthesis. • 4. TRUE OR FALSE? Matter and energy flow through food chains. _____
Learning Target • I can understand how plants get energy and matter for growth • After: (why)
Converting Sunlight into Sugar Learning Target: • I can understand that energy is transferred from one form to another • I can understand that plants get their energy from light energy • I can understand the inputs and the outputs of photosynthesis • I can understand that photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts

Visible Light • Light is a form of electromagnetic energy, which travels in waves • When white light passes through a prism the individual wavelengths are separated out.
Light Reflected Light Chloroplast Absorbed light Granum Transmitted light Figure 10.7 Light Options When It Strikes A Leaf • Reflect – a small amount of light is reflected off of the leaf. Most leaves reflect the color green, which means that it absorbs all of the other colors or wavelengths. • Absorbed – most of the light is absorbed by plants providing the energy needed for the production of Glucose (photosynthesis) • Transmitted – some light passes through the leaf
Mesophyll Chloroplast 5 µm Outer membrane Intermembrane space Thylakoid Thylakoid space Granum Stroma Inner membrane 1 µm Chloroplast • Are located within the palisade layer of the leaf • One Membrane sacs called Thylakoids • Contain pigments on the surface • Pigments absorb certain wavelenghts of light • A Stack of Thylakoids is called a Granum
PHOTOSYNTHESIS • Comes from Greek Word “photo” meaning “Light” and “syntithenai” meaning “to put together” • Photosynthesis puts together sugar molecules using water, carbon dioxide, & energy from light.
Happens in two phases • Light-Dependent Reaction • Converts light energy into chemical energy • Light-Independent Reaction • Produces simple sugars (glucose) • General Equation 6 CO2 + 6 H2O C6H12O6 + 6 O2
First Phase • Requires Light = Light Dependent Reaction • Sun’s energy excites an electron in the chlorophyll molecule • Electron is passed to nearby protein molecules in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast
Excited state e– Heat Energy of election Photon (fluorescence) Ground state Chlorophyll molecule Photon Figure 10.11 A Excitation of Chlorophyll by Light • When a pigment absorbs light it absorbs energy • It goes from a ground state to an excited state, which is unstable
Electron Transport Chain • Electron from Chlorophyll is passed from protein to protein along an electron transport chain • Electrons lose energy (energy changes form) • Finally bonded with electron carrier called NADP+ to form NADPH or ATP • Energy is stored for later use
Thylakoid Photosystem Photon STROMA Light-harvesting complexes Reaction center Primary election acceptor e– Thylakoid membrane Special chlorophyll a molecules Transfer of energy Pigment molecules THYLAKOID SPACE (INTERIOR OF THYLAKOID) Figure 10.12 Photosystem • A photosystem • Is composed of a reaction center surrounded by a number of light-harvesting complexes
Two Photosystems • Photosystem II: Clusters of pigments boost e- by absorbing light w/ wavelength of ~680 nm • Photosystem I: Clusters boost e- by absorbing light w/ wavelength of ~760 nm. • Reaction Center: Both PS have it. Energy is passed to a special Chlorophyll a molecule which boosts an e-

Where did those electrons come from? • Water • Electrons from the splitting of water supply the chlorophyll molecules with the electrons they need • The left over oxygen is given off as gas
High Quality H2O • Splitting of water with light energy • Hydrogen ions (H+) from water are used to power ATP formation with the electrons • Hydrogen ions (charged particle) actually move from one side of the thylakoid membrane to the other • Chemiosmosis – Coupling the movement of Hydrogen Ions to ATP production
e– ATP e– e– NADPH e– e– e– Mill makes ATP Photon e– Photon Photosystem I (NADPH-producing) Photosystem II (Water-splitting) Figure 10.14 Light-Dependent • Converts light into chemical energy (ATP & NADPH are the chemical products). Oxygen is a by-product
Pigment • Molecules that absorb specific wavelengths of light • Chlorophyll absorbs reds & blues and reflects green
Chlorophyll • Green pigment in plants • Traps sun’s energy • Sunlight energizes electron in chlorophyll
