nputs for light capturing reactions of photosynthesis - Water, light, NADP+, and ADP Outputs for light capturing reactions of photosynthesis - ATP, NADPH, and O2 Inputs for the Calvin Cycle - ATP, NADPH, and CO2 Outputs for the Calvin Cycle - G3P, ADP, NADP+ The Electron Transport Chain - Establishes a proton gradient in Photosystem I and II. The proton gradient established powers ATP synthesis. Calvin Cycle Location - Stroma (the liquid material between the Thylakoids) Photosynthesis Loc...

Chapter 1: How do an observation, hypothesis, and a prediction differ? - A hypothesis is a testable statement to explain a phenomenon or a set of observations. A prediction describes a measurable or observable result that must be correct if a hypothesis is valid. An observation consists of receiving knowledge of the outside world through our senses, or recording information using scientific tools and instruments.

Chapter 7: What are the major differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells? - A prokaryotic cell has no membrane bound organelle while eukaryotic cells do. Chapter 7: What components are found only in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells? - A prokaryotic cell has a nucleiuod region and while a...
