Photosynthesis Flashcards
1
Q
Materials needed for photosynthesis to occur:
A
Carbon Dioxide, Water, Sunlight, Leaf / Chloroplasts
2
Q
Expected products from photosynthesis
A
Sugars (Glucose), Oxygen
3
Q
- composed of particles that travel as waves
A
Light Energy
4
Q
- how light energy is measured
A
Wavelengths
5
Q
- its role is to maximize the different wavelengths in light to enable photosynthesis in photoautotrophs
- plant pigments that capture different wavelengths of light
A
Chlorophyll
6
Q
- light is captured by the thylakoid to drive chemical reactions
- produces ATP and NADPH for the Calvin Cycle
- in the thylakoid
A
Light Dependent Reaction
7
Q
- ATP and NADPH is used to drive chemical reaction to capture the carbon from CO2
- needed to fulfill its role in creating sugars
- in stroma
A
Calvin Cycle or Light - Independent Reaction
8
