lesson 7 - Photosynthesis Flashcards
unit 3
1
Q
Photosynthesis
A
is the process in which light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of glucose
2
Q
Light-dependent reaction
A
endergonic reactions that absorb and capture the energy of light.They occur on the lamellar membranes of the chloroplasts.
3
Q
Light-independent reaction
A
(Calvin Cycle) are exergonic reactions that use that stored energy to produce organic storage products (carbohydrates). They occur in the stroma of the chloroplasts.
4
Q
Stroma (phase 2)
A
The fluid inside chloroplasts where the light-independent phase of photosynthesis (Calvin cycle) takes place.
5
Q
Thylakoid disc (phase 1)
A
The light-dependent reaction happens in the thylakoid membranes, where sunlight splits water to make oxygen, ATP, and NADPH.
