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!

Sir, you have just saved me from failing cell biology and in turn possibly dropping out of university. Please, keep making your videos and I will definitely share this with my friends. In all honesty, you have taught this subject in the best way i have experienced. Thank you.

[@rai_ingking]

the photosynthesis that I learned in my childhood just became a nightmare 🙂

[@vcelt]

to study for my bio final a few weeks ago, instead of reading over my notes and such, I watched your videos on my topic. got a 97%. came back to share this success story.

ooooh, bad idea!

[@89RcK]

I've never made a comment on youtube but I had to. This video is so good...I kept waiting for him to start explaining the Calvin cycle and when he was like, "and that's the Calvin Cycle." I'm like wow...I never learned something so easily before

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.

And this does not only apply to biology but also how great you are at explaining other subjects concepts as well. Thank you for saving our mental health a day before our exams, I will never be able to thank you enough 🙏

Got my final exam on Monday... should've started watching these videos after the first lecture. These videos are so much clearer than any lecture I've had all year.

[@LettingtheDemonSpeak]

you're incredibly talented at explaining seemingly difficult concepts. thank you so much for applying your talents like this, and for choosing to help so many people throughout their journeys toward knowledge. :)

[@BitterSweetNitemare]

This is a miracle... I actually understand what's going on. I need to watch more of these ;3; Thanks x1000

Great, I was trying to pay attention to the video on this and now I'm caught off in your channel. Awesome drawings btw!

[@BigManJay69]

BitterSweetNitemare i feel the same... it all started when i was looking for videos on the krebs cycle... i could never get my head around it... but this guy explained it so well... then a few videos down the line led me here, and for the first time in my life i have a decent understand on the subject :) amazing

[@sinfulmoose]

As someone studying Biology from home out of a huge folder with no tutor to help, this is a God send! Thank you so much for doing what you do you beautiful man, you!

[@landonherm794]

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.

[@ritajasaha2550]

I got a Biology exam tomorrow, I spent over hours to figure out the cellular respiration. Finally I spent around 30 minutes to watch the whole series of it in yous channel, and I get it now. Sad that my teacher sucks in explaining.

thank you for all the photosynthesis and cellular respiration processes videos!!! It really helped me from failing finals. To be honest, I couldn't understand what my biology teacher is teaching at all. Maybe it's just me, who knows. These videos taught me more than my biology teacher teaching in one semester. Big thanks to you sir Khan!!! Thanks for giving all of us knowledge!!!

[@jinx2873]

thank you. this was one of the clearest videos to refresh my memory on the calvin cycle even though it didn't even contain animations

[@ThomasPopeUNC]

The reason that they are so long is because he explains things in sufficient detail to give the viewer a full understanding of whatever is being covered; not just surface-level knowledge.

[@CodexTestsYT]

Guys there is a video missing, which comes after 'photosynthesis: light reactions 1' but before this one, if you want to look at everything in order. The missing video is about cyclic and non-cyclic photophosphorylation, which is pretty important. Just search 'Photosynthesis: Light Reactions and Photophosphorylation'

[@RBAnderson87]

EDUCATE MEEEEE!!!!! I've been through over 10 of your videos, you are a beast. Thanks.

[@leonnemulder549]

[@mydailysilence]

im in unimelb year one, thank you so much for your help. your interpretation is lucid and very very clear. it answers all my question that the book did not tell. thank you so so so so so so much! i love you

[@Najbjergdrengen]

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 KZbinrs, but maybe important so someone :) Keep up the good work!
