NADPH and ATP are produced by the light reactions. The ATP is a high energy molecule produced by photophosphorylation while the NADPH is produced at the end of the electron transport chain.

What are two high energy electron carriers used in cellular respiration that are not used in photosynthesis?
What are the two new high energy electron carriers used during cellular respiration that are different than the one used for photosynthesis.
What takes place during photosynthesis?
Light energy is converted into chemical energy. Photosynthesis is divided into two reactions (light reaction and light independent reaction) and they work together to make glucose, which can then be used by the cell.
What are the two methods producers use to make their own energy rich molecules?
Respiration and fermentation which make up photosynthesis.
What happens to energy from the sun during photosynthesis?
Photons from the sun excite electrons in the photosynthetic pigments, leading to the production or either ATP or NADPH, with ATP storing the energy from the sun in the form of a high-energy pyrophosphate bond and NADPH storing the energy in the form of high-energy electrons. ATP and NADPH are then used to produce glucose, which is a relatively more permanent storage of energy.
What energy is radiant energy turned into during photosynthesis?
During photosynthesis, radiant energy is absorbed and converted into chemical energy.
Where are the light energy absorbing molecules used in photosynthesis found?
In chloroplasts
What does a photo-system do for photosynthesis?
Photo systems utilize light to energize an electron which is then used in an electron transport chain to create high energy molecules for use in the dark reactions of photosynthesis.
Why do high-energy electrons need carrier molecules?
The energy in light raises some of the electrons in chlorophyll to higher energy levels. These high-energy electrons are used in photosynthesis. Electron carriers are used to transport the electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules during photosynthesis.
What happens to the sugar molecules that plans produce in photosynthesis?
they are used by the plant as energy and nutrition.
What happens to the glucose molecules for photosynthesis?
They are fuel for respiration. Used to generate energy mainly
What are two methods producer used to make their own energy-rich molecules?
Photosynthesis
What best describes the relationship between photosynthesis and respiration ATP molecules are produced in photosynthesis and used up in respiration Respiration is an?
photosynthesis stores energy in complex organic molecules, while respiration releases it.
What are two high energy electron carriers used in cellular respiration that are not used in photosynthesis?
What are the two new high energy electron carriers used during cellular respiration that are different than the one used for photosynthesis.
What is the energy from photosynthesis used for?
The energy from photosynthesis is used to make glucose for the plant.
What is high energy molecules used by cells?
Adenosine TriPhosphate is a high energy molecule used in the Kreb cycle of the mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell.
What is the biological importance of photosynthesis for the ecosystem?
1. It transforms sunlight energy into chemical energy stored in molecules. 2) The molecules that trap the energy in their chemical bonds are also used as building blocks for other molecules. 3) Photosynthesis releases free oxygen gas into the environment, which is essentail for the survival of all life forms.
What takes place during photosynthesis?
