• Autotrophs:
biotic producers;
photoautotrophs; chemoautotrophs;
obtains organic food without eating
other organisms
• Heterotrophs:
biotic consumers; obtains organic
food by eating other organisms or
their by-products (includes
decomposers)

Light Being Used
Chlorophyll is the main pigment in the
chloroplast. It is green and will reflect the
green light.
Plants use the violet- blue area of the
spectrum the most.
The orange - red area is used also used.

Light Reactions
This set of reactions needs sunlight and
chlorophyll.
They occur in the area of the chloroplast
called the thylakoids.
Sunlight hits and activates an area called the
photosystem causing water molecules to split
into H+ and O2
The Oxygen leaves the cell, while the H+ are
used to help create 2 high energy chemicals
ATP and NADPH.
These chemicals are sent to the stroma to be
used in the Dark Reactions.
Dark Reactions
They occur in the stroma of the chloroplast.
This process does not need sunlight and can
occur 24 hours a day.
In this series of reactions the plant makes a
chemical called PGAL from carbon dioxide
and the energy from the ATP and NADPH.
This PGAL is an intermediate compound that
is raw material for all the materials a plant
needs. The most common is sugar.

Summary
This is a building process
It requires water, carbon dioxide, sunlight,
and chlorophyll. It produces sugar and
oxygen..
The Light reaction produces oxygen and the
needed materials for the Dark reactions.
The Dark reactions produce PGAL from the
carbon dioxide, ATP and NADPH.
PGAL will be used to produce sugar and
other materials.
