Photosynthesis - Light Dependent Reactions and the Calvin Cycle
Offered By: The Organic Chemistry Tutor via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the fundamental process of photosynthesis in this 18-minute biology video tutorial. Gain a comprehensive understanding of the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin Cycle, also known as the dark reactions. Learn how plants harness sunlight energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen gas and glucose. Discover the role of Photosystem II in oxidizing water and transporting electrons through the thylakoid membrane's electron transport chain. Understand the production of high-energy molecules like ATP and NADPH, including the process of chemiosmosis involving ATP Synthase. Delve into the Calvin Cycle's utilization of CO2, ATP, and NADPH to create G3P, which is subsequently used to synthesize sugars such as glucose and fructose. Follow along as the tutorial breaks down the complex process into easily digestible segments, covering the chloroplast structure, light-dependent reactions, and the Calvin Cycle in detail.
