4.2 Kahoot - exam Flashcards
What organelle does photosynthesis take place in?
chloroplast
what does mesophyll tissue do in plants
photosynthesis
what is the role of the stomata
to allow gases into and out of the leaves
these open and close the stomata
guard cells
together, stomata and guard cells regulate
gas exchange and water loss
in c3 plants, when are the stomata open
usually during the day
where do protons accumulate during photosynthesis
thylakoid space
e’ in plant pigments gain energy by
the absorption of light energy
a leaf looks green becayse its chlorophyll molecules ___________.
reflect green light and absorb the other frequencies
as the absorbance of chlorophyll a increases, the rate of photosynthesis
increases
photosystem
a cluster of pigments and proteins that capture light energy
antenna complexes
cluster of pigments/proteins that capture light
what is the function of the reaction center
to pass excited e’ out of the photosystem
what provides the e’ in the light-dependent reactions with the energy to move from the reaction center to the carrier
light
where do the light-dependent reactions occur
thylakoid membrane
photosystem I has which reaction centre?
P700
photosystem II has which reaction centre
P680
what is the last protein in the etc of photosynthesis?
NADP+ reductase
what is the function of water in photosynthesis
supply e’ to photosystem II
how is oxygen made in photosynthesis
its made when water is split apart
what protein creates a high concentration of H+ during the light dependent reaction?
b6-f complex
the end product of the light-dependent reactions is glucose
false
