Campbell Biology: Concepts & Connections Tenth Edition Chapter 7 Photosynthesis: Using Light to Make Food Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Introduction Biofuels are energy sources obtained from living material. When we derive energy from biofuels, we are tapping into the energy of the sun. In living cells, this same solar energy is converted to the chemical energy of sugar through the process of photosynthesis. This chapter focuses on how photosynthesis works.

G Heterotrophs are consumers that feed on plants or others animals or decompose organic material.

Chlorophyll is a light-absorbing pigment in the chloroplasts that plays a central role in converting solar energy to chemical energy.

Using a heavy isotope of oxygen, O-18, scientists were able to follow the fate of oxygen atoms during photosynthesis. The results were that plants produced O2 containing O-18 only when supplied with labeled H2O, never when provided with labeled C O2. Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education, Inc.

Checkpoint question Which redox process, photosynthesis or cellular respiration, is exergonic? Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Figure 7.4 1 - & Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education, Inc.

During the Calvin cycle, C O2 is incorporated into organic compounds in a process called carbon fixation.
