Lexie Nylund, November Double Bio monday 16th

What we Learned

• Read and understand lab pg 195
• Pigment Lab
• Looked at notes he gave us (photosynthesis notes)

What we looked at

 

• The cycles of photosynthesis
• Calvin benson cycle
• The phases of the calvin benson cycle

 

What i thought

 

• I thought the photosynthesis was one of the hardest unites and should of had more time.
• The cycles were interesting to see how the calvin cyle and how everything fit in place and how it goes into G3P into glucose to starch and sucrose

 

Above and Beyond

 

• The Calvin-Benson cycle can be constructed step by step. To do so, the required energetic or reduction quivalents (ATP or NADPH) must be dragged to the reaction vector and the correct enzymes for the next reaction step must be chosen.

•  Phase 1: carbon fixation
• Phase 2: reduction
• Phase 3: Regeneration of CO2 acceptor (RuBP)
