light-independent time
any
limiting factors of photosynthesis
light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration and temperature
light intensity graph shape
plateaus due to other limiting factors or saturation
carbon dioxide concentration graph shape
plateaus due to saturation
temperature graph shape
reduction as temperature deviates from optimal
factor affecting water avaliability
stomata close in hot, dry conditions to conserve water, affecting intake of carbon dioxide
chlorophyll molecule location
thylakoid membrane
ATP provides
chemical energy
carbon fixation
carbon is stored in glucose
type of reaction
anabolic or endothermic
