PHOTOSYNTHESIS, RESPIRATION

Standard 1f: Students know usable energy is captured from sunlight by 
chloroplasts and is stored through the synthesis of sugar from carbon 
dioxide. 

Stnadard 1g: Students know the role of the mitochondria in making stored 
chemical-bond energy available to cells by completing the breakdown of 
glucose to carbon dioxide. 

*Standard 1i: Students know how chemiosmotic gradients in the mitochondria 
and chloroplast store energy for ATP production.

Photosynthesis - time line of discoveries

ATP charging - simplistic, but cute.

A good animation. Try to ignore the details, and get an impression 
of the energy passge, while the electrons are flowing. EXPIRED, as off Nov 
2007

Animation of Light-dependent reaction: Electorn Transport and making ATP and 
NADPH

Calvin cycle animation step by step/ Pretty good!
http://faculty.nl.edu/jste/calvin_cycle.htm

Most of the animations here came from this list. You can try them 
all if you want, but don't get caught in the details!

and NADPH production.
