3.3 Photosynthesis…The Details
• Photosynthesis is divided into 2 sequential processes
1. Light reaction (stages 1 and 2)
2. Carbon Fixation (Calvin Cycle) (stage 3)

Overview of Photosynthesis
6CO2 + 12H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O
• Photosynthesis, like cellular respiration, is a series of redox reactions!

What does this suggest about photosynthesis?
6CO2 + 12H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O
The sugars that result from photosynthesis are
produced by adding the hydrogen ions and electrons
from water to carbon dioxide, NOT by splitting CO2 and
adding water!oxidized

The stages of photosynthesis…
Light Dependent Reactions
• Occurs along the thylakoid membrane
• this is where H2O is oxidized.
• chemiosmotic production of ATP!
• electron carrier (NADPH) is synthesized
![Page 6: 3.3 Photosynthesis… The Details Photosynthesis is divided into 2 sequential processes 1.Light reaction (stages 1 and 2) 2.Carbon Fixation (Calvin Cycle)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649dd15503460f94ac79d8/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Light Reaction
• Divided into 3 parts;
1. Photoexcitation-absorption of a photon by an electron of chlorophyll
2. Photosystems and the ETC
3. Chemiosmosis (sound familiar?)
![Page 7: 3.3 Photosynthesis… The Details Photosynthesis is divided into 2 sequential processes 1.Light reaction (stages 1 and 2) 2.Carbon Fixation (Calvin Cycle)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649dd15503460f94ac79d8/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Photoexcitation
• Before photons strike chlorophyll, their electrons are at ground state (lowest potential energy)
• Once the photon strikes the electron it becomes “excited” and moves to a higher potential energy level
• The electron eventually goes back to ground state (loss of potential energy appears as heat and light-fluorescence if it is not used in photosynthesis)
![Page 8: 3.3 Photosynthesis… The Details Photosynthesis is divided into 2 sequential processes 1.Light reaction (stages 1 and 2) 2.Carbon Fixation (Calvin Cycle)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649dd15503460f94ac79d8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Photoexcitation
• Most chlorophyll do not fluoresce while in a thylakoid memebrane b/c the excited electron is captured by the primary electron acceptor
• This is a redox rxn-the chlorphyll is oxidized and the primary acceptor is reduced

Photosystems and the ETC
![Page 12: 3.3 Photosynthesis… The Details Photosynthesis is divided into 2 sequential processes 1.Light reaction (stages 1 and 2) 2.Carbon Fixation (Calvin Cycle)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649dd15503460f94ac79d8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
ETC of Photosynthesis
Chloroplasts transform light energy into chemical energy of ATP
use electron carrier NADPH
generates O2

Photosynthetic Electron Transfer Chain (PETC)
• series of electron carriers which take electrons from photosystem, and..
• ultimately carry electrons to NADP+
![Page 15: 3.3 Photosynthesis… The Details Photosynthesis is divided into 2 sequential processes 1.Light reaction (stages 1 and 2) 2.Carbon Fixation (Calvin Cycle)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649dd15503460f94ac79d8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Photosystems
• Experiments in the 1940’s suggested that light photons are
absorbed at 2 different points along the same PETC.…
• In fact, there are two Photosystems in operation

Terms• Primary electron acceptor-pheophytin (PSII)• PQ-Plastoquinone (PSII)• Z protein-splits water (PSII) the 2 electrons are used to replace
the ones lost in P680, oxygen leaves as “waste” and the protons remain adding to the gradient
• B6-f cytochrome complex (PSII)• Pc-Plastocyanin (PSII)• Fd-ferredoxin (PSI)• NADP reductase (PSI) uses 2 electrons and H+ to reduce
NADP+ to NADPH (b/c 2 electrons are needed this process must occur twice)
• ATP is created by chemiosmosis due to the proton gradient in the thylakoid lumen-this drives ATP synthase. 4 protons are move into the lumen for each pair of electrons that move through the ETC
![Page 24: 3.3 Photosynthesis… The Details Photosynthesis is divided into 2 sequential processes 1.Light reaction (stages 1 and 2) 2.Carbon Fixation (Calvin Cycle)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649dd15503460f94ac79d8/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
ETC of Photosynthesis• ETC uses light energy to produce
– ATP & NADPH (called noncyclic electron flow)• go to Calvin cycle
• PS II absorbs light– excited electron passes from chlorophyll to
“primary electron acceptor-pheophytin”– need to replace electron in chlorophyll– Enzyme (z protein) extracts electrons from H2O &
supplies them to chlorophyll• splits H2O (h protons)• O combines with another O to form O2
• O2 released to atmosphere• and we breathe easier!
![Page 25: 3.3 Photosynthesis… The Details Photosynthesis is divided into 2 sequential processes 1.Light reaction (stages 1 and 2) 2.Carbon Fixation (Calvin Cycle)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649dd15503460f94ac79d8/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Noncyclic Photophosphorylation
• Light reactions elevate electrons in 2 steps (PS II & PS I) – PS II generates
energy as ATP– PS I generates
reducing power as NADPH ATP
![Page 26: 3.3 Photosynthesis… The Details Photosynthesis is divided into 2 sequential processes 1.Light reaction (stages 1 and 2) 2.Carbon Fixation (Calvin Cycle)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649dd15503460f94ac79d8/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Cyclic photophosphorylation• If PS I can’t pass electron
to NADP…it cycles back to PS II & makes more ATP, but no NADPH– coordinates light reactions
to Calvin cycle– Calvin cycle uses more
ATP than NADPH

Remember what it means to be a plant…
• Need to produce all organic molecules necessary for growth– carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids
• Need to store chemical energy (ATP) produced from light reactions– in a more stable form – that can be moved around plant– saved for a rainy day

From CO2 C6H12O6• CO2 has very little chemical energy
– fully oxidized• C6H12O6 contains a lot of chemical energy
– highly reduced• Synthesis = endergonic process
– put in a lot of energy • Reduction of CO2 C6H12O6 proceeds in
many small uphill steps– each catalyzed by a specific enzyme– using energy stored in ATP & NADPH

Accounting • The accounting is complicated
– 3 turns of Calvin cycle = 1 G3P
– 3 CO2 1 G3P (3C)
– 6 turns of Calvin cycle = 1 C6H12O6 (6C)
– 6 CO2 1 C6H12O6 (6C)
– 18 ATP + 12 NADPH 1 C6H12O6
– any ATP left over from light reactions will be used elsewhere by the cell

Summary of photosynthesis
• Where did the CO2 come from?• Where did the CO2 go?• Where did the H2O come from?• Where did the H2O go?• Where did the energy come from?• What’s the energy used for?• What will the C6H12O6 be used for?• Where did the O2 come from?• Where will the O2 go?• What else is involved…not listed in this equation?

Supporting a biosphere• On global scale,
photosynthesis is the most important process for the continuation of life on Earth– each year photosynthesis…
• captures 121 billion tons of CO2
• synthesizes 160 billion tons of carbohydrate
– heterotrophs are dependent on plants as food source for fuel & raw materials

The poetic perspective…
• All the solid material of every plant was built by sunlight out of thin air
• All the solid material of every animal was built from plant material
Then all the plants, cats, dogs, elephants & people …
are really particles of air woven together by strands of sunlight!
