Photosynthesis

Question 1

Photosynthesis

Answer 1

1-Building sugars from CO2
2-Using the energy of light

Question 2

The site of photosynthesis

Answer 2

Chloroplast

Question 3

What is the highly specialized membrane chloroplast contain

Answer 3

Thylakoid Membranes

Question 4

What light harvesting pigments do Thylakoid contain

Answer 4

Chliorophyll

Question 5

2 major steps of photosynthesis

Answer 5

1-Light-dependent reactions
2-Calvin cycle

Question 6

Light Dependent reactions

Answer 6

1- Happens in Thylakoids/chloroplast
2- Form high energy bond in ATP
3-Store high energy electrons as NADPH

Question 7

Calvin Cycle

Answer 7

1-Happens in the stroma/Chroloplast
2-Uses ATP and NADPH which are provided by light-dependent reactions
3- Convert CO2 to sugar
4- happens only if light reactions produce ATP and NADPH

Question 8

Stacks of thylakoids

Answer 8

Grana

Question 9

Stroma

Answer 9

Liquid inside the chloroplast

Question 10

Thylakoid membranes

Answer 10

Carry pigment to absorb light energy

Question 10

Relationship between light reasction and calvin cycle

Answer 10

Light Reaction produce the ATP and NADPH required for Calvin cycle

Question 11

Chlorophyll

Answer 11

the most abundant light-absorbing pigment in plants

Question 12

what is Photosystems

Answer 12

when pigments are arranged into clusters in the thylakoid membrane

Question 13

2 type of photosystems

Answer 13

1- Photosystem I (PS I)
2- Photosystem II (PS II)

Question 14

Primary Product of Photosynthesis

Answer 14

1-Monosaccharides (Glucose and Fructose)

Question 15

What do the monosaccharides Glucose and fructose from

Answer 15

Disaccharides like sucrose

Question 16

Polysacchardies

Answer 16

Long chains of monosaccharides joined together

Question 17

2 type of polysaccharides in plants

Answer 17

1-Starch- For storage of extra sugar
2-Cellulose- For structure in the cell walls

Question 18

One type of polysaccharide in mammals like humans

Answer 18

Glycogen- Storage of extra sugar we eat
