The Light Dependent Reactions

Harvesting Light:

Light Dependent Reactions (Noncyclic Photophosphorylation): (NetLearning) - Shows Photosystems II & I and how they make ATP & NADPH respectively.

Light Dependent Reactions: (Without text or audio explanation)

Cyclic & Noncyclic Photophosphorylation: (McGraw-Hill- Click on both animations.) - Cyclic Photophosphorylation creates ATP in photosynthetic bacteria, the energized electron returning to the same photosystem. Noncyclic Photophosphorylation creates both ATP & NADPH, the energized electron moves on to a different photosystem.

Light Dependent Reactions: Animation with audio description.

ATP Synthase (How the enzyme ATP synthase uses passage of H+ ions to convert ADP to ATP)

 

The Light Independent Reactions (Calvin Cycle)

Calvin Cycle: (June B. Steinberg) - Decent animation & written description

Calvin Cycle: - Good animation, minimal written description & no audio.
