Description: Explore one of the most fascinating processes plants can do: photosynthesis! In this Amoeba Sisters updated photosynthesis video, you will find a general overview of the light dependent and light independent reactions (Calvin Cycle) and how they work together to ultimately produce glucose. This video also compares the photosynthesis equation to the equation in cellular respiration. Still prefer the old video? It's here: youtu.be/uixA8ZXx0KU This video or the original (old) photosynthesis video can be used with our "Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration" handout on amoebasisters.com/handouts and our photosynthesis Unlectured series topic amoebasisters.com/unlectured Table of Contents: 0:00 Intro 0:33 Why does photosynthesis matter? 1:23 Photosyn vs Cellular Resp Equations 2:17 Chlorophyll and other pigments 3:33 Light dependent reactions 4:36 Light independent reactions (Calvin Cycle) 5:48 Big picture overview 6:39 Examples of adaptations for photosyn ----------------------------------------------- Factual References: Rye, Connie, et al. “8.1 Overview of Photosynthesis.” Biology, OpenStax, 21 Oct. 2016, openstax.org/books/biology/pages/8-1-overview-of-photosynthesis?
