Photosynthesis is a two-step process ATP and NADPH are used in the stroma (cytoplasm of
the chloroplast) to fuel the Dark Reaction
• They provide chemical energy for the reactions

The Light Reactions Lead to the Formation of ATP and NADPH
ATP is the primary product of Photosystem II
NADPH is formed after electron excitation in Photosystem I

The energy from light is captured and converted in chloroplasts
This energy is passed through an electron transport chain in chloroplasts that convert that energy to a more usable chemical
form = ATP and NADPH

Uses NADPH and ATP produced in the LIGHT REACTION to produce GLUCOSE
Requires 9 ATP for every 6 NADP

DA’ MAIN PLAYERS!
CO2 is source of carbon (comes from the atmosphere)
RUBP is the 5 carbon starting point where C from CO2 is inserted
Rubisco is the enzyme that helps produce glucose and keep the Dark Reaction going
PGA or phosphoglyceraldehyde (3C) is eventually glued together into glucose or becomes RUBP

What is the Result of the DARK REACTION (BESIDES BRAIN-PAIN FOR BIO 11 STUDENTS??)
Plant produces GLUCOSE molecules using the energy of ATP and NADPH
The Carbon came from CO2 gas from the atmosphere
Glucose = potential chemical energy is prodcuced, making
plants the PRIMARY PRODUCERS
