Science Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Flashcards
The process by which certain organisms use light energy to make sugar and oxygen gas from carbon dioxide and water.
Photosynthesis
A chemical process in which energy from light is harvested to provide carbohydrates.
Photosynthesis
Major path through which Carbon reenters the biosphere (from CO2)
Photosynthesis
Also the major source of Oxygen in the Earth’s atmosphere
Photosynthesis
The place where Photosynthesis occurs.
Chloroplast
Photosynthesis occurs in the following parts of the Chloroplast:-
Grama
Stroma
They are sac like structures present in the chloroplast.
Grana
The light reaction takes place in this
Grana
They are spaces surrounding the Grana.
Stroma
They are site for dark reaction.
Stroma
They are arqueos and contain RNA, DNA and Ribosomes.
Stroma
The capturing of light energy occurs within the chloroplasts, primarily located in the —– cells of the leaf.
Mesophyll
Major light absorbing pigments on thylakoid membrane is —–
Chlorophyll.
Light-dependent reactions occur on the
thylakoid membranes
The 2 oxygen atom from O2 gas that is released into the air to be consumed by —– and used in cellular respiration.
Heterotrophs.
Sugar food plant need
Glucose.
Photosynthesis Equation
6C O2 + 6H2 O + sunlight -> C6 H12 O6 + 6O2.
Aeriobic Cellular Respiration Equation
C6 H12 O6 + 6O2 → 6C O2 + 6H2 O+ATP
Reactions that occur in the chlorplast that, together, make up photosynthesis.
Light Dependent Reaction
Light Independent Reaction
Light Independent Reaction aka?
Dark reaction or Calvin Cycle
Light Dependent Reaction happen in the?
Thylakoids.
Compartments in the cholorplast that contain pigment.
Light Dependent Reaction
Light and water in, ATP and NADPH in.
Light Dependent Reaction
Stack of thylakoids
Granum
