Carbon Dioxide diffuses through small holes in the
underside of leaves, called the stomata.
The light reactions take place in three stages. Name
the stages and summarize the events of each stage. 1.
Photons excite electrons in the chlorophyll of the first
photosystem. These photons are then trapped by the
primary electron acceptor. This photosystem then
How and where does replaces the lost electrons by extracting new ones
carbon dioxide enter a from water. This is the step that releases O2 during
plant? photosynthesis. 2. Energized electrons from the first
photosystem pass down an electron transport chain
to the second photosystem. The chloroplast uses the
energy released by this electron "fall" to make ATP. 3.
The second photosystem transfers its light-excited
electrons to NADP+, reducing it to NADPH.
List all products of the light reactions. carbon dioxide,
water. Glucose, oxygen
"1) Carbon Fixation- The enzyme rubisco combines
CO2 with 5-carbon sugar rubulose biphosphate
(RuBP). The unstable product formed splits into 2
molecules of 3-carbon 3-phosphoglyceric acid (3-
PGA).
2) Reduction- Energy from 6 molecules of ATP is used
to oxidize NADPH to NADP+. Six molecules of 3-PGA
The Calvin cycle has three are reduced, producing six molecules of energy-rich

stages and summarize the 3) Release of one molecule of G3P- Five of the
events of each stage. previously created G3Ps remain in the cycle, but one
molecule is released.
4) Regeneration of RuBP - series of chemical
reactions uses energy from ATP to rearrange the
atoms of the 5 G3P molecules, (15 total carbons),
which forms 3 RuBP molecules (15 total carbons).
These will start another turn of the cycle.
