IB Biology 8.2 Photosynthesis (HL)

Draw and label a diagram showing the structure of a chloroplast as seen in an electron micrograph

8.2.2 State that photosynthesis consists of the light-dependent and light-independent reactions

Draw a diagram of the overview of photosynthesis with LDR and LIR

Explain the light-independent reactions.

What is the light-independent reaction known as and what are its main steps

Explain what occurs during Carbon Fixation.

Explain what occurs during Reduction

What occurs during the regeneration of RuBP

Draw a Diagram of the Calvin Cycle

8.2.6 Explain the relationship between the structure of the chloroplast and its function

8.2.7 Explain the relationship between the action spectrum and absorption spectrum of photosynthetic pigments in green plants

8.2.8 Explain the concept of limiting factors in photosynthesis

What are the limiting factors of photosynthesis

Why is light intensity a limiting factor to photosynthesis?

Why is temperature a limiting factor to photosynthesis?

Why is the concentration of Carbon Dioxide a limiting factor to photsynthesis?

8.2.3 Explain the light dependent reactions

Explain Non-cyclic Photophosphorylation

Explain Photophosphorylation

Draw two diagrams comparing cyclic and non-cyclic photophosphorylation

8.2.4 Explain photophosphorylation in terms of chemiosmosis

Draw a diagram of photophosphorylation via chemiosmosis
