Outcome:
  • Analyse the structure and regulation of biochemical pathways in photosynthesis


Photosynthesis as an example of biochemical pathways

  • Inputs, outputs and locations of the light dependent and light independent stages of photosynthesis in C3 plants 
  • The role of Rubisco in photosynthesis, including adaptations of C3, C4 and CAM plants to maximise the efficiency of photosynthesis
  • The factors that affect the rate of photosynthesis: light availability, water availability, temperature and carbon dioxide concentration
