Citric acid cycle = Krebs cycle which occurs in the matrix of mitochodria after glycolysis
Photosynthesis
Electron transport chain: H2O + NAD ---light---> NADH2 + (1/2)O2
Light is required to excite the chlorophyll molecules.
Calvin cycle: Light is not required.
Experiment on the same plant:
where L = 1 second light exposure, D = 1 second darkness
1st: Alternately
LDLDLD
2nd: Continuously
LLL
More starch is produced in 1st because in darkness the Calvin cycle takes place.
