In photosynthesis, contrast the light reactions with the light independent reactions, in terms of goals, inputs, and outputs of each. Spatially where do they take place (which parts of the chloroplast)? (Optional, for further discussion: Could there be light reactions without light-independent reactions, or visa-versa?)

You will create a slide show/ Canva/ Website on the flow chart of photosynthesis phases .Your poster should include, but is not limited to:○ The overall equation is at the top.○ A diagram of a chloroplast which indicates where each reactant is used and whereeach product is synthesized. ○ All intermediary steps were studied in the light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions, in the form of a flow chart(try to add details around them), using appropriate terminology. ● You will also submit a detailed explanation of your flow chart, using appropriateterminology.
For the following questions, choose one to discuss: chloroplast/photosynthesis State at the outset which one you will discuss. A) What role do proton gradients play in the process of photosynthesis proton gradients allow B) Where are proton gradients formed? Within what structures are they seen in chloroplasts How do the structures help them to maintain a gradient? C) Explain where and how the chloroplast or mitochondria uses passive transport and active transport to complete photosynthesis or cellular respiration.
For the chloroplast, the thylakoid membrane separates the thylakoid lumen from the stroma; the protons from the photosystems are transported, like with the mitochondrial inner membrane, against the gradient from the lumen to the stroma. However, the pH(lumen) – pH (stroma) is much larger, about 3.4. Calculate delta psi (the electric potential) for the thylakoid membrane, given that ∆G of proton transport is about the same as for the mitochondrion. Then comment on its permeability to ions, compared to the mitochondrial inner membrane’s permeability to ions.
Briefly explain the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis: where does this take place, what are the reactants and what is produced?
2.) A.) Explain how electron transfer leads to ATP biosynthesis in the light reactions of photosynthesis. You must give details about how electron flow builds a pH gradient and a description of the compartments in the chloroplast in relation to pH. Also, compare the ETC of the mitochondrion with the ETC of the light reactions for both the source and destination for electrons. B.) Would ATP biosynthesis happen if ionophores, which would create holes in the thylakoid membrane and allow uncontrolled passage of charged molecules such as protons between compartments, are provided to the chloroplast? Why or why not? C.) How would you modify Complex I of the electron transport chain to decrease ATP yield from Step 3 of β-oxidation? As part of this, you must explain why there is a difference in ATP yield between NADH and FADH 2 AND give a specific change to the ETC that would decrease ATP yield from Step 3

For most plants, two distinct photosystems (Photosystem I and Photosystem II) work together in series during photosynthesis. These photosystems are complexes of proteins and pigment molecules. Statement 1: Photosystem I has an absorption maximum of 680 nm, whereas Photosystem II has an absorption maximum of 700 nm. Statement 2: The special pair of chlorophyll a molecules in the reaction center of photosystem I is designated as P700, whereas the special pair of chlorophyll a molecules in the reaction center of photosystem II is designated as P680. Statement 1 is true. Statement 2 is false. Statement 1 is false. Statement 2 is true. Both statements are true. Both statements are false.

There are two photosystems ( I and II) involved in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. What is the functional difference between these two photosystems?
Describe the purpose of the light dependent reaction and light independent reaction (carbon fixation reaction) in photosynthesis. In addition, explain how the products of the light dependent reaction are used in the light independent reaction (carbon fixation reaction)
You performed an experiment on photosynthesis on Elodea, using bromothymol blue as an indicator forpH. Your two light conditions were red light and blue light. You found that in blue light, your solutionturned a nice cobalt blue, and in red light it turned green.a. What can you conclude about the efficiency of photosynthesis in Elodea regarding those twowavelengths?b. What would your conclusion be if your negative control (no Elodea in white light) turned greenalso?
