What is the relationship of the light and dark reactions of photosynthesis? In other words, what things are produced in each set of reactions, and how does one set of reactions depend on the other?

Photosynthesis – Minute Paper (Pt. 2)(worth 1 more point)
What is the relationship of the light and dark reactions of photosynthesis? In other words, what things are produced in each set of reactions, and how does one set of reactions depend on the other?
How does a root cell, in a photosynthetic plant like a carrot, obtain food? How do these root cells use this food?
Photosynthesis
How does a cell at the growing point of a plant root get the energy it needs to grow and divide?

Photosynthetic Leaf Section Organ-level
Plants make sugar in their leaves
How does a cell at the growing point of a plant root get the energy it needs to grow and divide?
Vascular Bundles
Phloem - All plant tissues need sugars made in photosynthetic tissue
Xylem - Stems and leaves need water and minerals from the roots
Sucrose from the leaves is shipped to the roots!
Phloem - sugar transport
• There is phloem in the leaves
• There is phloem in the stems
• There is phloem in the roots
Think about the plant as a whole organism!
Where does it get made?
Where does it get used?
How does it get there?

PHOTOSYSTEM II (Feb 2004) Photosynthesis uses light energy to drive the oxidation of water at an oxygen-evolving catalytic site within photosystem II (PSII). We report the structure of PSII of the cyanobacterium Thermosynechococcus elongatus at 3.5 Å resolution. We have assigned most of the amino acid residues of this 650 kDa dimeric multisubunit complex and refined the structure to reveal its molecular architecture. Consequently we are able to describe details of the binding sites for cofactors and propose a structure of the oxygen-evolving center (OEC). The data strongly suggest that the OEC contains a cubane-like Mn3CaO4 cluster linked to a fourth Mn by a mono-µ-oxo bridge. The details of the surrounding coordination sphere of the metal cluster and the implications for a possible oxygen-evolving mechanism are discussed.Kristina N. Ferreira, Tina M.
