capturing light energy by chlorophyll the stroma
using proton pumps in the thylakoid
Light dependent

in photolysis
Light independent

reaction :
protons 1Mt) used to make sugars which also produces htlmountains conc . gradient thylakoid )
in



LIGHT -
DEPENDENT REACTION :
energy of light captured used to make ATP or photolysis
MAKING ATP :
chlorophyll absorbs light energy ,
increases energy excites electrons
,
to
higher energy level

electrons have enough energy
to leave chlorophyll photo ionisation -


chlorophyll are oxidised

electrons are takes up by an electron carrier Iis reduced ) ,
carries form transfer chain in
thylakoid
• electrons passed along carries is the transfer chain 1 redox reactions) each ,
carrier is at a
slightly lower

energy so electrons lose energy at each stage ,
some
energy
host is used in ATP + P → ADP


PHOTOLYSIS OF WATER : since
chlorophyll loses electrons when light is absorbed these
electrons must be replaced this comes from wake being split by Ight energy 1 photolysis )

Oz


protons pass out of thylakoid space through
synathes channels and are taken ATP up by an


electron carrier -
NADP When NADP takes up protons it is reduced
. this is ,
the man

light dependent stage and enters the light independent reaction

oxygen produced lby product ) diffuses- out of the leaf or is used in respiration
LIGHT INDEPENDENT REACTION - : ATP and reduced NADP
from light dependent -




used to reduce 3- phosphate

Calvin cycle which takes place in stroma

Coz diffuses into the leaf through stomata and dissolves in water around the walls of the
mesophyll cells then ,
through the all surface membrane into the stroma

LO z reacts with ribulose triphosphate IRUBP -

a 5 carbon compound) catalysed by rubisco

reaction between Oz and RUBP produces 2 molecules of glycerite 3-phosphate

triose phosphate using energy supplied by ATP ,
this reforms NADP lgoes back to lryht dependent

A-level Revision

Hi! I\'m a student currently about to start at the University of Leeds to study Medicine. At A-levels I took Chemistry, Biology and Maths and received 3 As. Throughout studying I made extensive revision notes using my iPad which are neat and handwritten so have decided to pass them on through selling them on this account. I hope my notes can help someone as much as they helped me through my A-levels.
