Introduction
The synthesis of ATP from ADP is known as Photophosphorylation.
Pre-Requisites:
ATP, ADP
Activity:
Various plants synthesis ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate in the presence of light.
Real Life Question:
What is Photophosphorylation?
Key Words / FlashCards
| Key Words | Definitions (pref. in our own words) |
|---|---|
| ATP | Adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) is a nucleoside triphosphate used in cells as a coenzyme. |
| ADP | Adenosine diphosphate, abbreviated ADP, is a nucleoside diphosphate. It is an ester of pyrophosphoric acid with the nucleoside adenosine. |
