1. Photosynthesis converts light energy from the sun into chemical energy through a series of reactions that take place in the chloroplasts of plants, algae, and some bacteria.
2. The light reactions use energy from sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and energy carriers (ATP and NADPH). The Calvin cycle then uses this energy to convert the carbon from carbon dioxide into sugars.
3. Photosynthesis occurs in two stages - the light-dependent reactions that take place in the thylakoid membranes to produce ATP and NADPH, and the light-independent Calvin cycle that uses these products to fix carbon from carbon dioxide into organic compounds like glucose.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

2. The Process That Feeds the Biosphere
• Photosynthesis is the process that converts
solar energy into chemical energy
• Photosynthesis occurs in plants, algae,
photoplankton, and some prokaryotes
3. • Autotrophs sustain themselves without eating
anything derived from other organisms
– producers of the biosphere, producing organic
molecules from CO2 and other inorganic molecules
• Almost all plants are photoautotrophs, using the
energy of sunlight to make organic molecules
5. • Heterotrophs obtain their organic material from
other organisms
– consumers of the biosphere
• Almost all heterotrophs, including humans,
depend on photoautotrophs for food and O2
6. Photosynthesis converts light energy to the
chemical energy of food
• Chloroplasts are structurally similar to and
likely evolved from photosynthetic bacteria
• The structural organization of these cells
allows for the chemical reactions of
photosynthesis
7.
8. Chloroplasts: The Sites of Photosynthesis
in Plants
• Leaves are the major locations of
photosynthesis
• Their green color is from chlorophyll, the
green pigment within chloroplasts
• Chloroplasts are found mainly in cells of the
mesophyll, the interior tissue of the leaf
• Each mesophyll cell contains 30–40
chloroplasts
9. • CO2 enters and O2 exits the leaf through
microscopic pores called stomata
• The chlorophyll is in the membranes of
thylakoids (connected sacs in the chloroplast);
thylakoids may be stacked in columns called
grana
• Chloroplasts also contain stroma, a dense
interior fluid

12. Photosynthesis
• Photosynthesis is a complex series of reactions
that can be summarized as the following
equation:
6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Light energy → C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O
13. The Splitting of Water
• Chloroplasts split H2O into hydrogen and
oxygen, incorporating the electrons of hydrogen
into sugar molecules and releasing oxygen as a
by-product
15. Photosynthesis as a Redox Process
• Photosynthesis
– reverses the direction of electron flow
compared to cellular respiration
– is a redox process in which H2O is oxidized
and CO2 is reduced
– is an endergonic process; the energy boost is
provided by light
becomes reduced
Energy + 6 CO2 + 6 H2O C6 H12 O6 + 6 O2
becomes oxidized
16. The Two Stages of Photosynthesis
• Photosynthesis consists of the light
reactions (the photo part) and Calvin cycle
(the synthesis part)
17. The light reactions in thylakoids convert
solar energy to the chemical energy of
ATP and NADPH
• Goal of the light reactions (in the thylakoids)
– Split H2O
– Release O2
– Reduce NADP+ to NADPH
– Generate ATP from ADP
18. Calvin Cycle
• Calvin cycle takes place in the stroma
• Uses energy made in light reaction stage (ATP
and NADPH) to form glucose (sugar)
• Calvin cycle begins with carbon fixation,
incorporating CO2 into organic molecules

23. The Nature of Sunlight
• Light is a form of electromagnetic energy, also
called electromagnetic radiation
• Like other electromagnetic energy, light travels in
rhythmic waves
• Wavelength is the distance between crests of
waves
– determines the type of electromagnetic energy
24. • The electromagnetic spectrum is the entire
range of electromagnetic energy, or radiation
• Visible light consists of wavelengths (including
those that drive photosynthesis) that produce
colors we can see
• Light also behaves as though it consists of
discrete particles, called photons
26. Photosynthetic Pigments: The Light
Receptors
• Pigments are substances that absorb visible light
• Different pigments absorb different wavelengths
• Wavelengths that are not absorbed are reflected
or transmitted
• Leaves appear green because chlorophyll
reflects and transmits green light
28. • A spectrophotometer measures a pigment’s
ability to absorb various wavelengths
• This machine sends light through pigments and
measures the fraction of light transmitted at each
wavelength
29. • An absorption spectrum is a graph plotting a
pigment’s light absorption versus wavelength
• The absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a
suggests that violet-blue and red light work best
for photosynthesis

30. • Chlorophyll a is the main photosynthetic pigment
• Accessory pigments, such as chlorophyll b,
broaden the spectrum used for photosynthesis
• Accessory pigments called carotenoids absorb
excessive light that would damage chlorophyll

33. A closer look at light reactions…
• A photosystem consists of a reaction-center
complex (a type of protein complex) surrounded
by light-harvesting complexes
• The light-harvesting complexes (pigment
molecules bound to proteins) transfer the energy
of photons to the reaction center

THYLAKOID SPACE
(INTERIOR OF THYLAKOID)
(a) How a photosystem harvests light
35. • A primary electron acceptor in the reaction
center accepts excited electrons and is reduced
as a result
• Solar-powered transfer of an electron from a
chlorophyll a molecule to the primary electron
acceptor is the first step of the light reactions
36. • Two types of photosystems in the thylakoid
membrane
• Photosystem II and Photosystem I
• Photosystem II (PS II) functions first (the
numbers reflect order of discovery) and is best at
absorbing a wavelength of 680 nm
• reaction-center chlorophyll a of PS II is called P680
37. • Photosystem I (PS I) is best at absorbing a
wavelength of 700 nm
• reaction-center chlorophyll a of PS I is called P700
38. Linear Electron Flow
• During the light reactions, there are two possible
routes for electron flow: cyclic and linear
• Linear electron flow, the primary pathway,
involves both photosystems and produces ATP
and NADPH using light energy
39. • A photon hits a pigment and its energy is passed
among pigment molecules until it excites P680
• An excited electron from P680 is transferred to
the primary electron acceptor (we now call it
P680+)
41. • P680+ is a very strong oxidizing agent
• H2O is split by enzymes, and the electrons are
transferred from the hydrogen atoms to P680+,
thus reducing it to P680
• O2 is released as a by-product of this reaction
43. • Each electron “falls” down an electron transport
chain from the primary electron acceptor of PS II
to PS I
• Energy released by the fall drives the creation of
a proton gradient across the thylakoid
membrane
• Diffusion of H+ (protons) across the membrane
drives ATP synthesis

45. • In PS I (like PS II), transferred light energy
excites P700, which loses an electron to an

• P700+ (P700 that is missing an electron) accepts
an electron passed down from PS II via the
electron transport chain

47. • Each electron “falls” down an electron transport
chain from the primary electron acceptor of PS I
• The electrons are then transferred to NADP+ and
reduce it to NADPH
• The electrons of NADPH are available for the
reactions of the Calvin cycle
• This process also removes an H+ from the
stroma

50. Cyclic Electron Flow
• Cyclic electron flow uses only photosystem I
and produces ATP, but not NADPH
• No oxygen is released
• Cyclic electron flow generates surplus ATP,
satisfying the higher demand in the Calvin cycle
• Cyclic electron flow may protect cells from
light-induced damage

52. A Comparison of ATP Synthesis in
Chloroplasts and Mitochondria
• Chloroplasts and mitochondria generate ATP,
but use different sources of energy
• Mitochondria transfer chemical energy from
food to ATP
• Chloroplasts transform light energy into the
chemical energy of ATP
53. • In mitochondria, protons are pumped to the
intermembrane space and drive ATP synthesis
as they diffuse back into the mitochondrial matrix
• In chloroplasts, protons are pumped into the
thylakoid space and drive ATP synthesis as they
diffuse back into the stroma

55. Light Reaction Summary
• ATP and NADPH are produced on the side
facing the stroma, where the Calvin cycle takes
place
• In summary, light reactions generate ATP and
increase the potential energy of electrons by
moving them from H2O to NADPH

57. The Calvin cycle uses the chemical energy
of ATP and NADPH to reduce CO2 to sugar
• The Calvin cycle, like the citric acid cycle,
regenerates its starting material after molecules
enter and leave the cycle
• The cycle builds sugar from smaller molecules
by using ATP and the reducing power of
electrons carried by NADPH
58. • Carbon enters the cycle as CO2 and leaves as
a sugar named glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate
(G3P)
• For net synthesis of 1 G3P, the cycle must take
place three times, fixing 3 molecules of CO2
• The Calvin cycle has three phases
– Carbon fixation (catalyzed by enzyme,
RuBisCO)
– Reduction
– Regeneration of the CO2 acceptor
