Photosynthesis. Autotrophs and Heterotrophs. Autotrophs are organisms that make their own food Heterotrophs are organisms that need to ingest food to obtain energy. How are they related??. Autotrophs. Photosynthesis.
E N D
Autotrophs and Heterotrophs • Autotrophs are organisms that make their own food • Heterotrophs are organisms that need to ingest food to obtain energy
Photosynthesis • How plants (and some other organisms) use light to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and sugar!
Leaf Plant Cell chloroplast
Chloroplasts have chlorophyll (pigment) This is why chloroplasts are green, why leaves are green
Chloroplast Stroma Outer membrane intermembrane space Inner membrane grana thlakoid Lumen (inside thylakoid)
Photosynthesis Light reactions Photosystem II Photosystem I In thylakoid membrane Dark Reactions (aka… The Calvin Cycle) In stroma
2 Photosystems in thylakoid Light reactions
Light reactions In thylakoid membrane ATP P680 P700 ATP NADPH ETR ETR photons P680 P700 Photosystem II Photosystem I
NOTE…… Electron Carriers are NADP …… b/c can become NADPH
How ATP made in light rxn? • Hydrogen ions flow through a channel in the thylakoid membrane • ATP synthaseattached to the channel makes ATP
