Lesson Objective

Chart the path of carbon from atmospheric carbon dioxide to organic molecules during the Calvin cycle, identifying where the products of the light reactions are consumed.

What would happen to the production of carbohydrates in the Calvin cycle if a plant were kept in total darkness but supplied with an artificial source of ATP and NADPH?

How does the evolutionary development of water-splitting photosynthesis relate to the historical oxygenation of Earth's atmosphere?

3.3-Cellular Energy
3.4- Photosynthesis

Autotrophic organisms utilize a series of coordinated pathways to capture free energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy stored in sugars.
