P3 Q1 Flashcards
The green pigment in the chloroplasts; gives leaves their color
Chlorophyll
It’s the process used by plants, algae, some protists and certain bacteria to harness energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy
Photosynthesis
_____________ is stored as food in other parts of the plant and turns iodine dark blue
Starch
Starch is converted from _________
Sugar
In photosynthesis, _________ is given off into the air
Oxygen
In photosynthesis, _____ enters through the stomata of the leaves
CO2
_________ is absorbed from the root
Water
_____________ traps light energy to make sugar
Chlorophyll
Where does the energy for photosynthesis come from?
The sun
Photosynthesis requires ____________ ___________ ______________ and produces ____________ ____________
CO2 water and sunlight
Sugar and Oxygen
___________ ability to do work
Energy
Ultimately, _________ gives plants the energy they need
Sugar
Green plants use sunlight with air and water to make _________. They are _________ for they make their own food
Sugar
Producer
Photo means ________ and _________ is putting together
Light
Synthesis
6CO2 + 6H2O ————> C6H12O6 + 6O2
(Sunlight)
Photosynthesis
- you need a lot of water and co2 to make a single sugar
__________ main product of photosynthesis
Glucose
____________ are groups of molecules where sunlight is absorbed
Photosystems
__________ is the organelle of photosynthesis
Chloroplast
Sac light membrane where chlorophyll is found
Thylakoid memebrane
The stages of photosynthesis are
_
_
Light dependent reactions
Light independent reactions
Stage of photosynthesis in which the energy from sunlight is stored in ATP and NADPH
Light reactions
Is an energy carrying molecule (not ATP)
NADPH
Stage of photosynthesis in which glucose is made (uses CO2)
Calvin cycle
Other producers who don’t use photosynthesis use ….
Chemosynthesis
Light hit the ____________, where chlorophyll is found. The H2O is split. ___ is released into the air. Hydrogen then is used to make energy
Thylakoids
O2
Skeleton if the chloroplast, maintains the distance between thylakoids
lamellae
Space outside the thylakoid membranes. Location of the Calvin Cycle in which organic compounds are formed (such as glucose)
Stroma
Stack of thylakoid
Granum
Saclike photosynthetic membranes that contain photosystems, clusters of pigments and proteins that absorb light energy
Thylakoids
Splitting of sugar and occurs in the ________ of the cell
Glycolysis
Cytosol
Cell respiration takes place in the (glycolysis) ________ and __________ (Krebs Cycle, Electron Transport Chain)
Cytoplasm
Mitochondria
As a result of glycolysis ________ _______ is made as well as ATP
Pyruvic acid
Series of electron-transport molecules, which pass electrons from molecule to molecule
Electron transport chain
Electrons are carried in _______ and _______
NADH
FADH2
