Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct]]> 2017-10-16 14:04:09 UTC https://padlet.com/1317029196/wt4zhv0ovfqg/wish/197355879 1317029196 https://padlet.com/1317029196/wt4zhv0ovfqg/wish/197356545

NADPH and ATP formed by the action of light then reduce carbon dioxide and convert it into 3-phosphoglycerate by a series of reactions called the Calvin cycle or the dark reactions.]]> 2017-10-16 14:27:06 UTC https://padlet.com/1317029196/wt4zhv0ovfqg/wish/197371144 1317029196 https://padlet.com/1317029196/wt4zhv0ovfqg/wish/197371787

The cycle is light-independent because it takes place after the energy has been captured from sunlight.The Calvin cycle has four main steps: carbon fixation, reduction phase, carbohydrate formation, and regeneration phase. Energy to fuel chemical reactions in this sugar-generating process is provided by ATP and NADPH, chemical compounds which contain the energy plants have captured from sunlight]]> 2017-10-16 14:28:34 UTC https://padlet.com/1317029196/wt4zhv0ovfqg/wish/197372093 1317029196 https://padlet.com/1317029196/wt4zhv0ovfqg/wish/197373348

A coenzyme that occurs in many living cells and functions as an electron acceptor like NAD but reacts with different metabolites. NADP is similar in structure to NAD but has an extra phosphate group]]> 2017-10-16 14:31:48 UTC https://padlet.com/1317029196/wt4zhv0ovfqg/wish/197374203 1317029196 https://padlet.com/1317029196/wt4zhv0ovfqg/wish/197377538

The hydrogen nucleus is made up of a particle carrying a unit positive electric charge, called a proton. The isolated hydrogen ion, represented by the symbol H ⁺, is therefore customarily used to represent a proton]]> 2017-10-16 14:41:44 UTC https://padlet.com/1317029196/wt4zhv0ovfqg/wish/197380155 1317029196 https://padlet.com/1317029196/wt4zhv0ovfqg/wish/197382865
