    My teacher tried to pile on Light Dependant Reactions, The Calvin Cycle, Glycolysis, Fermentation, The Krebs Cycle, and the Electron Transport Chain ALL IN TWO WEEKS. I didn't retain any of it, and now there's a test on all of it tomorrow, but thanks to you I think I can manage! Thank you so much!

    Amazing. Finally, education is adapting to the student and the student is utilizing computers and the internet, not an overpriced book, an uncomfortable desk, and a boring teacher. Bravo and cheers my friend. These "free" videos are much better than any science class I had at my extremely expensive four year college.

    Also, Rubisco stands for RibUlose 1,5 BISphosphatase Carboxylase/Oxygenase. If you are asked about photorespiration, it occurs when rubisco (which is a very inefficient enzyme) binds Oxygen instead, which occurs quite commonly.

  • @Najbjergdrengen
    @Najbjergdrengen 10 лет назад +1

    Really great movie!
    Explains it very well, however in my book of plant physiology it is said that: "The traditional view of the PCR cycle was that it did not require the direct input of light. These reactions were consequently referred to as "dark reactions" of photosynthesis. In the view of the fact that at least five critical enzymes in the cycle require light activation, such a designation is clearly not appropriate."
    "These include glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-3-PDH), fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase), sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphatase (SBPase) and ribulose-5-phosphate kinase (R-5P-K)"
    It's a small, and not so important thing for everyday RUclipsrs, but maybe important so someone :)
    Keep up the good work!
