Q

If you can see the color it is____

A

reflected

19
Q

If you cannot see the color it is____

A

absorbed

20
Q

the pigment that absorbs light energy is____and turns it into ATP

A

chlorophyll

21
Q

carbon dioxide and oxygen come in through the____

A

stomata

22
Q

Where is chlorophyll?

A

In the thylakoid

23
Q

Where does the “H” in NADPH come from?

A

H20 (water)

24
Q

What is the chloroplast?

A

organelle in plant cells where photosynthesis take place

25
Q

Where are the thylakoid and stroma?

A

In the chloroplast

26
Q

What does NADPH do?

A

Hydrogen carrier
Carries hydrogen from light dependent to light independent reaction to make glucose

27
Q

Factors that can affect photosynthesis

A
  • Availability of sunlight – more sunlight = faster photosynthesis
  • Availability of water – more water = faster photosynthesis
  • Availability of carbon dioxide – more CO2 = faster photosynthesis
28
Q

Let There Be Light Lab

A
  • Blue and red wavelengths of light are absorbed and used by the plant during photosynthesis to make food and grow
  • Green wavelength of light is reflected; this is why plants appear green in color
29
Q

Water (H20)

A
  • Sunlight is used to split the water molecule - photolysis
  • Produces oxygen
  • provides hydrogen needed to make glucose
30
Q

Autotrophs

A
  • Use energy from sunlight to make their own food (photosynthesis)
  • Examples: plants, algae
31
Q

ATP

A
  • Adenosine ___phosphate
  • Two high energy bonds - lots of stored cellular energy
32
Q

ADP

A
  • Adenosine ___phosphate
  • One high energy bond - little amount of stored cellular energy
33
Q

ATP is

A

the basic energy source used by all types of cells.

34
Q

When cells need ATP, they will

A

transform ADP into ATP by using energy from foods like glucose.

35
Q

Is sunlight required in the Calvin Cycle?

A

No.

36
Q

Stomata

A
  • Pores in a leaf, mostly on the undersurface.
  • Each pore is surrounded by a pair of guard cells.
37
Q

ROY G. BIV

A

(short wavelengths → long wavelengths)

38
Q

Producers capture the sun’s energy and convert it into food (_______).

A

photosynthesis

39
Q

We eat producers and receive energy stored within them (______).

A

cellular respiration

40
Q

How does ATP turn into ADP?

A

When one phosphate group is removed by breaking a bond in a process, energy is released, and ATP is converted to ADP.

41
Q

Guard Cells

A

Can change shape to open or close the stomata

42
Q

Thylakoids are arranged in stacks called ______.

A

granum

43
Q

The fluid portion of the chloroplast is called the ____.

A

stroma

44
Q

Heterotrophs

A
  • Consume other organism for food and energy
  • Examples: animals, humans
