This is the main product of photosynthesis. We use it to begin cellular respiration.

Occurs in the presence of no oxygen and by products can be lactic acid, alcohol and carbon dioxide. 2 ATPs are made very quickly.

During noncyclic photophosphorylation (light reaction), water is oxidized and the electrons from water pass through photosystem II and photosystem I before reducing-

No ATP is made in this step, but it moves and modifies pyruvate in the mitochondria.

This biomolecule is metabolized for energy by Beta oxidation.

This plant pigment is responsible for converting light energy into chemical energy

Plants use photosystems II and I in series. This is termed

2 NADH are made and a net gain of 2 ATPs. 1st step of cellular respiration which needs an investement of 2 ATPs

Organisms that generate their own organic molecules for energy:

Plants employ two photosystems in series, which generate power to ____ NADP+ to NADPH.
