Chloroplasts - Answer _____________ are the site of photo
synthesis in plants
Photosynthesis - Answer Up is to down. As cellular respiration is to ________________
Glucose, Made, Sun - Answer During photosynthesis, __________ and other energy-rich
molecules are ________ through a process that requires energy from the __________
Obtained, Glucose. - Answer During cellular respiration, energy is ____________ from
_________ and other energy-rich molecules.
Transforms light energy trapped by chloroplasts into chemical bond energy and stores that
energy in sugar and other organic molecules - Answer Define: Photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis - Answer Synthesis of energy-rich organic molecules (glucose) from energy-
poor molecules (CO2 and H2O)
Uses CO2 as a carbon source and sunlight-energy as the energy source.
Directly or indirectly supplies energy to most living organisms.
An endergonic reaction. - Answer What type of chemical reaction is Photosynthesis?
- Exergonic
- Endergonic
- Ionic
- Covalent
The green pigment that gives a leaf its color. Chlorophyll is also responsible for the absorption of
the light energy that drives photosynthesis. - Answer What is Chlorophyll?
Mesophyll cells. - Answer Primarily, in the leaf, what type of cells are chloroplasts found?
, Stoma or Stomata. (NOT STROMA!!!) - Answer Carbon-dioxide (CO2) and water (H20) enter
into the leaf through pores called the?
Vascular bundle. Also known as the vein. - Answer Water is absorbed by the roots and
transported to the leaves through the?
Thylakoids and the Stroma (fluid) - Answer What do chloroplasts contain?
Flattened membranous sacs inside the chloroplast. Chlorophyll is. - Answer Whats a
thylakoid? Whats inside of the thylakoid?
Thylakoid. Stroma - Answer Light-Dependent occurs in the ______________. While Light-
Independent occurs in the ______________.
2. Light-Dependent, Light-Independent. - Answer Photosynthesis consists of how many
reactions and if more than one, name them.
Waxy layer surrounding the leaf, that seals water in. - Answer Define the cuticle on a leaf.
Light-Dependent. INPUTS: NADP+, ADP, H2O. OUTPUTS: NADPH, ATP, O2
Light-Independent. INPUTS: ATP, NADPH. (could also include water, just in case). OUTPUT:
Glucose - Answer List the inputs and outputs of Light-Dependent and Light-Independent.
Electromagnetic - Answer Light is what type energy?
Wavelike and Particle-like - Answer Light energy has both ____________ and
______________ properties.
Shorter wavelength light has higher energy. While longer wavelength light has lower energy. -
Answer Describe light energy's wavelength properties.
Gama rays, purple. - Answer What type of light rays have the highest energy and shortest
wavelength? What color is produced by this?
Radio waves, red. - Answer What type of light rays produce the lowest energy and longest
wavelength? What color is created by this?
