photsynthesis

Question 1

photoautotrophs

Answer 1

produce own energy
absorb CO2 + water + energy to produce glucose and oxygen

Question 2

aerobic cellular respiration

Answer 2

glucose energy & oxygen to produce ATP

Question 3

photosynthesis

Answer 3

process that converts solar energy to chemical energy that’s stored in glucose bonds

Question 4

photosynthesis formula

Answer 4

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy —> C6 H12 + 6O2

Question 5

what are light waves called

Answer 5

photons
short wavelength=high energy
long wavelength= low energy

Question 6

chlorophyll

Answer 6

a green coloured pigment found in plants
absorbs photons = starts photosynthesis

Question 7

chorloplasts

Answer 7

1. have stacks of membrane lined discs called thylakoids

Question 8

stroma

Answer 8

surrounds thylakoids with a watery clear fluid
carries calvin cycles reactions

Question 9

thylakoid membrane

Answer 9

carries light reactions with molecules
transform light energy to chemical energy (atp + nadph)

disks that contain chlorophyll

Question 10

grana

Answer 10

stacks of thylakoids discs
most chloroplasts have 60 grana = 35-50 thylakoids
lamella connects to the grana

Question 11

lamella

Answer 11

unstacked thylakoid that connect between the grana

Question 12

thylakoid lumen

Answer 12

fluid filled space inside thylakoid

Question 13

light reactions

Answer 13

occurs in thylakoids
Adp, NADP —> ATP, NADPH
water molecules split and form oxygen that can be released into the atmosphere

Question 14

calvin cycle

Answer 14

occurs in stroma
use chemical energy(atp,NADPH) to to combine CO2 with air to make sugar (G3P)

Question 15

electromagnetic spectrum

Question 16

accessory pigment

Question 17

main pigment

Question 18

which part of the spectrum does chlorophyll absorb the most

Question 19

3 things photosynthesis needs to work

Answer 19

light energy
CO2
water

Question 20

inputs

Answer 20

water(6H2O) + 6CO2 + light energy (sun)

Question 21

outputs

Answer 21

sugar(C6,H12,O6) + oxygen (6O2)
