Study Notes
- Topic: Biology lesson on photosynthesis, discussing light and dark phases.
- Types of photosynthesis: oxygenic, anoxygenic, and oxygen-free.
- Cyanobacteria are autotrophs capable of photosynthesis.
- Process of photosynthesis involves absorption of water through roots and carbon dioxide through leaves.
- Glucose is produced as a result of photosynthesis.
- Chlorophyll is the main pigment responsible for photosynthesis in plants.
- Other auxiliary pigments include carotenoids, phycobilins, and bacteriochlorophylls.
- Photosynthesis is characteristic of all photoautotrophic organisms.
- Photosynthesis has two stages: light phase and dark phase (Calvin cycle).
- Light phase generates molecular oxygen, hydrogen atoms, and ATP using solar energy.
- Dark phase is independent of light and produces glucose from carbon dioxide and water using ATP.
