Tour Guide

  1. Study the notes from class lecture, and read information from the following sites:

 

Links: Photosynthesis information
http://www.sciencemadesimple.com/leaves.html
http://www.emc.maricopa.edu/faculty/farabee/BIOBK/BioBookPS.html
http://www2.worldbook.com/features/earth/assets/earlydevelop.jpg

.

 

Links: Light Reaction and dark reaction (Calvin cycle)
http://biology.clc.uc.edu/courses/bio104/photosyn.htm
http://ghs.gresham.k12.or.us/science/ps/sci/soph/energy/intbio/photo/rxns.htm
http://ghs.gresham.k12.or.us/science/ps/sci/soph/energy/photosyn/lightrxns.htm (look at steps 1 and 2)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_reaction (in particular, read Calvin cycle and light-independent reaction)

  1. Write a script for a tour guide who is leading a group through the thylakoid membrane during the light reaction, and then through the stroma during the dark reaction. The script should sound like a tour guide speaking rather than like a set of biology notes, and should be at least two pages typed.
