1 Chapter 7 Photosynthesis: Using Light to Make Food PowerPoint Lectures for Campbell Essential Biology, Fifth Edition, and Campbell Essential Biology with Physiology, Fourth Edition Eric J. Simon, Jean L. Dickey, and Jane B. Reece Lectures by Edward J. Zalisko 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.

2 Biology and Society: Biofuels Wood has historically been the main fuel used to produce heat and light Pearson Education, Inc.

3 Figure 7.0

4 Biology and Society: Biofuels Industrialized societies replaced wood with fossil fuels including coal, gas, and oil. To limit the damaging effects of fossil fuels, researchers are investigating the use of biomass (living material) as efficient and renewable energy sources Pearson Education, Inc.

5 Biology and Society: Biofuels There are several types of biofuels. Bioethanol is a type of alcohol produced by the fermentation of glucose made from starches in crops such as grains, sugar beets, and sugar cane. Bioethanol may be used directly as a fuel source in specially designed vehicles or as a gasoline additive Pearson Education, Inc.

6 Biology and Society: Biofuels Cellulosic ethanol is a type of bioethanol made from cellulose in nonedible plant material such as wood or grass. Biodiesel is made from plant oils or recycled frying oil Pearson Education, Inc.

7 THE BASICS OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS Photosynthesis is used by plants, algae (protists), and some bacteria, transforms light energy into chemical energy, and uses carbon dioxide and water as starting materials Pearson Education, Inc.

8 THE BASICS OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS The chemical energy produced via photosynthesis is stored in the bonds of sugar molecules. Organisms that use photosynthesis are photosynthetic autotrophs and the producers for most ecosystems Pearson Education, Inc.

13 Chloroplasts: Sites of Photosynthesis Chloroplasts are the site of photosynthesis and found mostly in the interior cells of leaves. Inside chloroplasts are interconnected, membranous sacs called thylakoids, which are suspended in a thick fluid called stroma. Thylakoids are concentrated in stacks called grana Pearson Education, Inc.

14 Chloroplasts: Sites of Photosynthesis The green color of chloroplasts is from chlorophyll, a light-absorbing pigment that plays a central role in converting solar energy to chemical energy. Stomata are tiny pores in leaves where carbon dioxide enters and oxygen exits Pearson Education, Inc.

22 The Simplified Equation for Photosynthesis In the overall equation for photosynthesis, notice that the reactants of photosynthesis are the waste products of cellular respiration Pearson Education, Inc.

23 Figure 7-UN01 Light energy 6 CO 2 6 H 2 O C 6 H 12 O 6 Photosynthesis Carbon dioxide Water Glucose 6 O 2 Oxygen gas

24 The Simplified Equation for Photosynthesis In photosynthesis, sunlight provides the energy, electrons are boosted uphill and added to carbon dioxide, and sugar is produced Pearson Education, Inc.

25 The Simplified Equation for Photosynthesis During photosynthesis, water is split into hydrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen is transferred along with electrons and added to carbon dioxide to produce sugar. Oxygen escapes through stomata into the atmosphere Pearson Education, Inc.

26 A Photosynthesis Road Map Photosynthesis occurs in two multistep stages: 1. the light reactions convert solar energy to chemical energy and 2. the Calvin cycle uses the products of the light reactions to make sugar from carbon dioxide Pearson Education, Inc.

27 A Photosynthesis Road Map The initial incorporation of carbon from the atmosphere into organic compounds is called carbon fixation. This lowers the amount of carbon in the air. Deforestation reduces the ability of the biosphere to absorb carbon by reducing the amount of photosynthetic plant life Pearson Education, Inc.

33 The Nature of Sunlight Sunlight is a type of energy called radiation, or electromagnetic energy. The distance between the crests of two adjacent waves is called a wavelength. The full range of radiation is called the electromagnetic spectrum Pearson Education, Inc.

38 The Process of Science: What Colors of Light Drive Photosynthesis? Observation: In 1883, German biologist Theodor Engelmann saw that certain bacteria tend to cluster in areas with higher oxygen concentrations. Question: Could this information determine which wavelengths of light work best for photosynthesis? Hypothesis: Oxygen-seeking bacteria will congregate near regions of algae performing the most photosynthesis Pearson Education, Inc.

39 The Process of Science: What Colors of Light Drive Photosynthesis? Experiment: Engelmann laid a string of freshwater algal cells in a drop of water on a microscope slide, added oxygen-sensitive bacteria to the drop, and used a prism to create a spectrum of light shining on the slide Pearson Education, Inc.

40 The Process of Science: What Colors of Light Drive Photosynthesis? Results: Bacteria mostly congregated around algae exposed to redorange and blue-violet light and rarely moved to areas of green light. Conclusion: Chloroplasts absorb light mainly in the blue-violet and red-orange part of the spectrum Pearson Education, Inc.

43 Chloroplast Pigments Chloroplasts contain several pigments: 1. Chlorophyll a absorbs mainly blue-violet and red light and participates directly in the light reactions. 2. Chlorophyll b absorbs mainly blue and orange light and participates indirectly in the light reactions Pearson Education, Inc.

44 Chloroplast Pigments Carotenoids absorb mainly blue-green light, participate indirectly in the light reactions, and absorb and dissipate excessive light energy that might damage chlorophyll. The spectacular colors of fall foliage are due partly to the yellow-orange light reflected from carotenoids Pearson Education, Inc.

45 Figure 7.7

46 How Photosystems Harvest Light Energy Light behaves as photons, a fixed quantity of light energy. Chlorophyll molecules absorb photons. Electrons in the pigment gain energy. As the electrons fall back to their ground state, energy is released as heat or light Pearson Education, Inc.

50 How Photosystems Harvest Light Energy In the thylakoid membrane, chlorophyll molecules are organized with other molecules into photosystems. A photosystem is a cluster of a few hundred pigment molecules that function as a lightgathering antenna Pearson Education, Inc.

51 How Photosystems Harvest Light Energy The reaction center of the photosystem consists of chlorophyll a molecules that sit next to another molecule called a primary electron acceptor, which traps the light-excited electron from chlorophyll a. Another team of molecules built into the thylakoid membrane then uses that trapped energy to make ATP and NADPH Pearson Education, Inc.

55 How the Light Reactions Generate ATP and NADPH Two types of photosystems cooperate in the light reactions: 1. the water-splitting photosystem and 2. the NADPH-producing photosystem Pearson Education, Inc.

59 How the Light Reactions Generate ATP and NADPH The light reactions are located in the thylakoid membrane. An electron transport chain connects the two photosystems and releases energy that the chloroplast uses to make ATP Pearson Education, Inc.

71 Evolution Connection: Solar-Driven Evolution C 3 plants use CO 2 directly from the air and are very common and widely distributed Pearson Education, Inc.

72 Evolution Connection: Solar-Driven Evolution C 4 plants close their stomata to save water during hot and dry weather and can still carry out photosynthesis. CAM plants are adapted to very dry climates and open their stomata only at night to conserve water Pearson Education, Inc.
