Presentation Transcript

  1. Photosynthesis

  2. Two Sets of Reactions

  3. Interaction between light and matter • Raises molecule to "excited state" • Molecule can return to ground state by • Losing energy as heat • Losing energy as fluorescent light • Transferring the energy to another molecule (resonance transfer) • Losing an excited electron (photooxidation)

  4. Carbon Fixation • The "light independent" reactions • The Calvin cycle
