Chloroplast Tour Guide

turn guide script Hello, my name is Seth and this is Mason. We provide be your tour guides on this wonderful trip of the chloroplast erst we pass the cell membrane we will go out a couple little greenish nuggets, these atomic number 18 have sexn as chloroplasts. Its what makes these plants autotrophs or organisms that create their own energy. They hold up no specific location and are usu every(prenominal)y spread passim the cells cytoplasm. Alright we are going to pass into this chloroplast here. Once we pass by means of the outer membrane there is going to be a space amid the outer and inner membrane.After we pass through this we will be into the chloroplast. Once inside the chloroplast we will stop by Grana Towers a great hotel complex, which will serve us with free desserts odoriferous by the plants sugar itself, isnt glucose great? (After Meal at the Grana Towers) allow us proceed with the tour. Now if you look left youll see a huge good deal of what looks like discs. This is a granum or a stack of thylakoids. Now look around and notice the natural glistening. All of this light comes from the sun and helps convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.Plants are made green from a pigment called chlorophyll, which absorbs sunlight. This granum absorbs the sunlight inside the chloroplast. And starts what is called the light reply. Which from the name you could plausibly tell uses light to fuel the reaction. Thats photosynthesis As you can see here as we enter the granum. There is a light reaction now occurring. If you look closely to can see these little pigments, as I mentioned before, called chlorophyll. The energy from the sunlight allows water that is overly absorbed to unwrap creating oxygen, which is then released into to the atmosphere.This energy is also carried through a system of electrons creating an energy compound called NAPDH. provided thats not all ATP which is the chief(prenominal) energy storing compound in any plant cell is also produced during this part of photosynthesis. That was great now wasnt it? Most of the tourist bustt get to witness a light reaction You all are very lucky Now I hope you all are some dark owls because were going to need to cling up late to witness the Calvin rhythm method of birth control the part of photosynthesis that occurs once night comes.Now, for the time being let us return to Grana Towers and we will stay on with our tour in a couple of hours. Oh, I almost forgot, Grana Towers will also be providing you with complementary salads for dinner Yum (Calvin oscillation) Ok now I know its late but you are about to witness the Calvin Cycle The part of photosynthesis that occurs during the night. The place where this cycle occurs is in the stroma which is all the spaces in between all of the granum. Since there is no light to use for energy the Calvin Cycle relies on ATP and NAPDH to fuel its process.The Calvin Cycle process results in sugars. You know l ike the ones we had for dessert this morning Anyway, it creates these sugars by using carbon dioxide which it converts into a 3-carbon molecule then goes through a system of other reactions to homunculus PGAL this compound allows the plant to make the sugars. I hate to say this But now its time for us to say our goodbyes I rightfully enjoyed your company and I wish you will comeback to once once again enjoy this wonderful organelle Well, Goodbye
