10. What happens
to the
hydrogens?
Chlorophyll uses light
energy to bounce the
electrons up to a
higher energy state
and give them to
NADP+ to make
NADPH
This traps the energy
from sunlight in a
chemical
NADP+
11. Think-pear-share
Why doesn’t the plant just
stop here? The light energy
is trapped as chemical
energy? Why bother
making glucose? What is
glucose good for?
12. What happens
to the
hydrogens?
The protons from
the hydrogens are
moved into the
lumen of the
thylakoid

13. Protons
Protons cannot cross the membrane
because they have a charge
When they move by facilitated diffusion,
ATP is made
14. Think-pear-share
Why can’t hydrogen protons
cross the membrane of the
thylakoid?
What is it about membranes that
prevents them from moving?
