The process of converting energy from a light-excited electron into the pyrophosphate bond of an ADP molecule?

photophosphorylation


In noncyclic photophosphorylation what is the ultimate acceptor of electrons that have been produced from the splitting of water?

Carbon dioxide is a noncyclic photophosphorylation and is the ultimate acceptor of electrons that have been produced from the splitting of water. A product of both cyclic and noncyclic photophosphorylation is ATP.


What is cyclic and non cyclic?

Cyclic photophosphorylation is when the electron from the chlorophyll went through the electron transport chain and return back to the chlorophyll. Noncyclic photophosphorylation is when the electron from the chlorophyll doesn't return back but incorporated into NADPH.


What is the fate of the NADPH molecules created during noncyclic photophosphorylation?

They are used in the Calvin-Benson cycle.


What is the end product of noncyclic photophosphorylation?

Cyclic photophosphorylation is the production of some ATP in the light dependent stage of photosynthesis. No photoylsis of water occurs and therefore no reduced NADP is produced either. Only photosystem one is involved here and as light is absorbed by the photosystem, two electrons are released which are accepted by the electron transfer chain. As the electrons are transferred along the chain, energy is released which pumps protons across the thylakoid membrane. A proton gradient forms and the protons diffuse through protein channels associated with ATP synthase enzymes, the proton motive force along with the enzyme combine ADP and inorganic phosphate atom to create ATP. The flow of protons which creates the ATP is chemiosmosis. The ATP can then be used in the light independent stage of photosynthesis or to actively transport potassium ions into the guard cells, so they become turgid as a result of water entering by osmosis. This causes the stomata to open and carbon dioxide can readily diffuse in - increasing the rate of photosynthesis.

What is meant by photophosphorylation?

Photophosphorylation is the process by which light energy is used to add a phosphate group to ADP to form ATP. This process occurs during photosynthesis in plants, algae, and some bacteria, where ATP is produced as a result of light-dependent reactions in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts.

What is photophosphorylation?

Photophosphorylation refers to the use of light energy from photosynthesis. Ti provides the energy to convert ADP to ATP.
