PHOTOSYNTHESIS

What is the purpose of photosynthesis?

What make their own food?

What make their own food?AUTOTROPHS (PRODUCERS)

Example: Plants

How is energy released from ATP?

Where is the chemical bond broken to release energy?

How is energy released from ATP? Phosphate Bond Breaks

Where is the bond broken to release energy:

At the bond between 2nd & 3rd

Phosphates

Which wavelengths have more energy?

Longer?

or

Shorter?

Which wavelengths have more energy?

What are pigments? What do pigments do?

What are pigments? What do pigments do?

Pigments are proteins!Pigments absorb light!

What makes plants green?CHLOROPHYLL (Pigment)

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

_____+ _____+ _____ → _______ + ___

Use this to help you….

REACTANTS → PRODUCTS

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

REACTANTS → PRODUCTS

Scientists Who Helped Develop the Photosynthesis Equation…

Intentionally left blank

Who conducted the experiment that determined plant growth needed water and was important part

of photosynthesis equation?

Van Helmont

CO2 + H₂O → Sunlight → C6H12O6 + O2

Van Helmont’s experiment concluded that the plant must have gotten its additional mass from H2O since that was

all that the plant received.

Who conducted the experiment that determined plants release oxygen (O₂) and was an important

part of the photosynthesis equation?

Priestly(Think: Priests put candles in churches)

Priestly found the plant released OXYGEN from his experiment keeping mouse and flame alive.

CO2 + H2O → Sunlight → C6H12O6 + O₂

Who conducted the experiment that determined that photosynthesis had a cycle that created glucose from CO₂ and

was an important part of the photosynthesis equation?

?

GLUCOSE

CO₂

Calvin

Calvin came up with the Calvin Cycle and showed how plants take ATP and NADPH to change CO2 →C2H12O6 (glucose)

CO2 + H2O → Sunlight → C6H12O6 + O2

GLUCOSE

CO₂

What is this organelle called?

Light blows up H₂O into H⁺ and е⁻ to help make NADPH & ATP:

energy that fuels the Calvin Cycle
