Chloroplast
site for photosynthesis
Cuticle
prevents H2O loss
Vascular bundle
transports H2O and C6H12O6
Palisade Mesophyll
photosynthesis (holds chloroplast)
Spongy mesophyll
gas exchange and photosynthesis.
Stomata
regulates gas exchange H2O loss
epidermis
hydrophobic, doesn’t let water out of the leaf.
carbon fixation
first stage of calvin cycle
reduction
second stage of calvin cycle
regeneration
third stage of calvin cycle
Rubisco
an enzyme that combines RUBP and CO2
PSII
where light first hits to excite electrons
Photo excitation-
(step 1) when the elctrons become excited
Electron transport chain-
(step 2) when the excited protein from PSII goes through a bunch of different membrane proteins.
Photolysis-
(step 3) the process of splitting water, from H2O to H+, O2, and e-, this electron replaces the one in photosystem 2
Chemiosmosis-
(step 4) when the H+ ions go through the ATP synthase.
reduction in LDP-
when ADP turns into ATP, and NADP+ turns into NADPH
