Z diagram and Q cycle ? (Bad teacher)

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the Z diagram and Q cycle, which are related to the light reactions of photosynthesis and the electron transport chain. The Z diagram illustrates the flow of electrons during these reactions, specifically involving P680. Participants confirm that the Q cycle refers to the electron transport chain, reinforcing the connection between these concepts and the study of photosynthesis. The conversation also includes a brief welcome to a new member and well-wishes for exam success.

Z diagram and Q cycle ?? (Bad teacher)

Hey guys, my teacher told me to review the Z diagram + Q cycle. I'm pretty sure that this means I'm to study Light reactions of Photo synthesis and The Fluid mosiac model. Sound Right?

Also this is my first post, so hi :D

Hi Idog! Welcome to PF!

I think by Q cycle he refers to the Electron Transport Chain. Z diagram would be one of the light reactions as you said (in P680)

This thread is my attempt to understanding the evidence that Natural Selection in the human genome was recent and regional. On Page 103 of A Troublesome Inheritance, Wade writes the following: "The regional nature of selection was first made evident in a genomewide scan undertaken by Jonathan Pritchard, a population geneticist at the...
