| Stage | What Happens | Key Components | Result |
|-------|--------------|----------------|--------|
| **Light‑Dependent Reactions (Photophosphorylation)** | • Light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and accessory pigments in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. <br>• Excited electrons travel through the electron‑transport chain, pumping protons into the thylakoid lumen. <br>• The proton gradient powers ATP synthase to produce ATP. <br>• NADP⁺ is reduced to NADPH. | • Chlorophyll a & b, carotenoids, photosystems I & II, plastoquinone, cytochrome b₆f, ATP synthase, ferredoxin, NADP⁺ reductase. | • **ATP** (energy currency) and **NADPH** (reducing power) are generated. |
| **Calvin Cycle (Light‑Independent Reactions)** | • CO₂ is fixed into a 5‑carbon sugar (RuBP) by the enzyme **Rubisco**. <br>• The resulting 6‑carbon compound splits into two 3‑phosphoglycerate (3‑PGA) molecules. <br>• 3‑PGA is phosphorylated by ATP and reduced by NADPH to glyceraldehyde‑3‑phosphate (G3P). <br>• One G3P exits the cycle to contribute to glucose and other carbohydrates; the rest is recycled to regenerate RuBP. | • **Rubisco** (most abundant enzyme), **ATP**, **NADPH**, **RuBP**, **G3P**. | • **Glucose** (and other sugars) are synthesized; CO₂ is released back to the atmosphere. |

### Key Points

1. **Location** – All reactions occur in chloroplasts; light‑dependent reactions in thylakoid membranes, Calvin cycle in the stroma.
2. **Energy Flow** – Light energy → ATP + NADPH → CO₂ fixation → sugars.
3. **Water Splitting** – In photosystem II, water is oxidized, releasing O₂, electrons, and protons.
4. **Regulation** – Light intensity, CO₂ concentration, temperature, and stomatal opening control the overall rate.
5. **Outcome** – Plants convert atmospheric CO₂

The greenhouse effect is a natural process that warms the Earth’s surface. It is caused by certain gases in the atmosphere—called **greenhouse gases (GHGs)**—that absorb and re‑emit infrared (IR) radiation. The main greenhouse gases are:

| Gas | Typical atmospheric concentration | Primary source |
|-----|-----------------------------------|----------------|
| **Water vapor (H₂O)** | ~0.3 % (variable) | Evaporation, transpiration |
| **Carbon dioxide (CO₂)** | ~0.04 % (≈ 410 ppm in 2024) | Fossil‑fuel combustion, deforestation, industrial processes |
| **Methane (CH₄)** | ~0.00018 % (≈ 1.9 ppm) | Agriculture (especially ruminants), wetlands, fossil‑fuel extraction |
| **Nitrous oxide (N₂O)** | ~0.00003 % (≈ 0.3 ppm) | Agriculture (fertilizers), combustion, industrial processes |
| **Ozone (O₃)** | ~0.00002 % (≈ 0.2 ppm) | Photochemical reactions in the troposphere |
| **CFCs and other halocarbons** | trace | Industrial refrigerants, aerosols (now largely phased out) |

These gases are **transparent to visible sunlight** (short‑wave radiation) but **opaque to the long‑wave infrared radiation** that the Earth emits after absorbing solar energy.

### How the Greenhouse Effect Works (Step‑by‑Step)

1. **Solar Radiation Reaches Earth**  
   - The Sun emits a spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, mostly in the visible and near‑infrared range (≈ 0.4–2.5 µm).  
   - The atmosphere is largely transparent to this short‑wave radiation, so most of it reaches the Earth’s surface.

2. **Earth Absorbs and Re‑Radiates Energy**  
   - The surface absorbs the incoming solar energy and warms.  
   - A warm surface emits thermal radiation (long‑wave IR) with a peak wavelength around 10 µm (according to Wien’s law).

3. **Greenhouse Gases Absorb IR Radiation**  
   - GHG molecules have vibrational modes that resonate with IR wavelengths.  
   - When a

## 1. Structural Features

| Feature | Description | Biological Significance |
|---------|-------------|------------------------|
| **Double‑Helix Backbone** | Two sugar‑phosphate chains wound around each other in a right‑handed helix. | Provides mechanical stability and protects the genetic code. |
| **Nucleotides** | Each unit consists of a deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. | The four bases (A, T, C, G) encode information. |
| **Base Pairing (Watson–Crick)** | Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T) via two hydrogen bonds; Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G) via three hydrogen bonds. | Enables accurate replication and transcription. |
| **Antiparallel Orientation** | One strand runs 5′→3′, the other 3′→5′. | Essential for polymerase enzymes to read and synthesize DNA. |
| **Major & Minor Grooves** | Structural channels that allow protein binding. | Sites for transcription factors, polymerases, and repair enzymes. |
| **Chromatin Packaging** | DNA wraps around histone octamers to form nucleosomes → 30‑nm fiber → higher‑order structures. | Condensates DNA for mitosis, regulates gene accessibility. |
| **Topological Constraints** | Supercoiling, knotting, and catenation. | Managed by topoisomerases to facilitate replication and transcription. |

| **Genetic Information Storage** | Sequence of bases encodes proteins, RNAs, regulatory elements. | Genes, introns, exons, regulatory sequences. |
| **Replication** | Semi‑conservative duplication; each new duplex contains one parental strand. | DNA polymerases (α, δ, ε), helicases, primase, ligase. |
| **Transcription** | RNA polymerase reads DNA template to synthesize mRNA. | RNA polymerase II (eukaryotes),
