Photosynthesis

Question 1

Phosphorylation

Answer 1

Addition of a phosphate to a molecule

Question 2

ADP

Answer 2

Adenosine di-phosphate. Molecule made up of a base (adenine), a sugar (ribose) and two phosphate molecules

Question 3

ATP

Answer 3

Adenosine tri-phosphate. Molecules made up of a basic (adenine), a sugar (ribose) and three phosphate molecules.

Question 4

NADP

Answer 4

Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate. Transfers protons and electrons in cells chemical reactions during photosynthesis

Question 5

NADPH

Answer 5

Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide phosphate Hydrogen

Question 6

Light stage

Answer 6

Light dependent stage of photosynthesis that occurs in the thylakoid membrane of the granum in the chloroplast and produces ATP and NADPH and oxygen

Question 7

Dark stage/Calvin cycle

Answer 7

Light-independent stage of photosynthesis that occurs in the stroma in the chloroplast and produces glucose
