How are the light reactions and the Calvin cycle connected?

A. The light reactions provide ATP to the Calvin cycle, and the Calvin cycle provides NADPH for the light reactions.

B. The light reactions provide ATP and NADPH to the Calvin cycle, and the Calvin cycle returns ADP and NADP+ to the light reactions.

C. The light reactions provide ATP and NADPH to the Calvin cycle, and the Calvin cycle returns reduced sugars to the light reactions.

D. The light reactions provide NADPH to the Calvin cycle, and the Calvin cycle provides RuBP to the light reactions.

E. The light reactions provide RuBP to the Calvin cycle, and the Calvin cycle returns G3P to the light reactions.

The Calvin Cycle• Starts w/ CO2 + enzyme Rubisco +RuBP

• 3 “turns” of Calvin make...

• 3-C sugar

• 6 “turns” = 1 glucose

The Calvin Cycle• Three phases...

• Fixation

• CO2 + RuBP + Rubisco

• Reduction

• requires ATP (for E)

• requires H (from NADPH)

• produces 3-C sugars: G3P

• 1/6 of which form Glu

• Regeneration

• 5/6 of 3-C sugars regenerate RuBP

• requires ATP

Alternative C-Fixations• What do plants do on hot, arid days?

• close their stomata

• What happens to PS reactants/prods?

• water conserved

• less CO2

• O2 build up

• Leads to Photorespiration

• O2 substitutes for CO2 in the active site of the enzyme rubisco

• Rate PS decreases

Minimizing Photorespiration

• C4 plants

• avoid photorespiration spatially

• CO2 stored as 4-C compounds

• stored in mesophyll cells• exported to bundle

sheath cells

• release CO2 to the Calvin cycle

• CAM plants• avoid photorespiration

temporally• Open their stomata at

night

• incorporating CO2 into organic acids

• CO2 released during the day to CC
