After several turns of the cycle _______________ molecules are formed. The __________ and NADP+ are recycled and sent back to the light reactions to be used again. The Calvin Cycle can produce not just glucose, but also ______________, _____________, and other ________________________. Excess starches are stored by the plants in its ___________, ____________, ___________, and ______________. __________________ may come along and eat the plant, thus indirectly gaining energy from the ____________. Part Three: Write the simple chemical equation for photosynthesis: PHOTOSYNTHESIS can be divided into two parts: The Light Reactions and the CALVIN CYCLE (light independent reactions). The light reaction begins with the absorption of light energy by CHLOROPHYLL A which is assisted by another pigment CHLOROPHYLL B found in the chloroplasts of plant cells. The ELECTRONS in these pigments get excited and move through an ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN where the final electron acceptor produces NADPH. Also occurring in the THYLAKOID membrane is CHEMIOSMOSIS and a process where water molecules are split to produce PROTONS, electrons, and OXYGEN GAS. The protons collect inside the thylakoid and exit to the STROMA through carrier proteins, an enzyme called ATP SYNTHASE, which makes ATP. The electrons are sent to the PHOTOSYSTEMSand become available to replace those that were used to make NADPH. The O2 is released by the plant through structures under the leaf called STOMA. In the STROMA of chloroplasts, the NADPHand ATP from the light reactions become reactants in the CALVIN CYCLE. Carbon dioxide from the ATMOSPHERE enters the leaf through tiny openings called STOMATA. In this process called CARBON FIXATION, CO2 joins with various carbon compounds that receive PHOSPHATES from ATP and a PROTON from NADPH. After several turns of the cycle ORGANIC molecules are formed. The ADP and NADP+ are recycled and sent back to the light reactions to be used again. The Calvin Cycle can produce not just glucose, but also AMINO ACIDS, LIPIDS, and other CARBOHYDRATES. Excess starches are stored by the plants in its ROOTS, FRUITS, STEMS, and LEAVES. HETEROTROPHS may come along and eat the plant, thus indirectly gaining energy from the SUN.
