How Does The Co2 Affect The Rate Of Photosynthesis
In the Calvin cycle, carbon atoms from CO2 are fixed and used to build three-carbon sugars. This process is fueled by, and dependent on, ATP and NADPH from the light reactions. Unlike the light reactions, which take place in the thylakoid membrane, the reactions of the Calvin cycle take place in the stroma. In the Calvin cycle, getting pulled into the cells using RUBISCO to facilitate the process incorporated gaseous CO2 molecules. RUBISCO acts much like a sponge with a great absorptive power to suck up the CO2 from the air surrounding a plant.
Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy, normally from the Sun, into chemical energy that can be later released to fuel the organisms' activities. When light hits an object, it is absorbed or reflected. When it is absorbed it disappears from our sight and when it is reflected, we …show more content…
Plants that use the C3 pathway keep their stomata which are small holes on the underside of their leaves, open to take in the oxygen gas needed. The stomata in the plants close at night in order to conserve water but opens during the day to obtain the chemicals for photosynthesis.
In water conditions that has a sufficient amount of rainfall, the C3 pathway would be considered a disadvantage because the stomata would need to close at night to conserve water due to receiving the water it needs regularly. The C3 pathway would be an advantage in harsh weather conditions that are hot, dry and receive little rainfall.
The C3 pathway is the most common form of photosynthesis that uses a 3 carbon molecule in the Calvin cycle. Plants that use the C3 pathway keep their stomata which are small holes on the underside of their leaves, open to take in the oxygen gas needed.
