Detailed Review with Correct Solutions |
Grade A+
Photosynthesis -✓✓Process that captures light energy and converts it
into chemical energy stored in glucose
Photosynthesis equation (word) -✓✓Water + carbon dioxide + light
energy → glucose + oxygen
Photosynthesis equation (chemical) -✓✓6H2O + 6CO2 + light energy
→ C6H12O6 + 6O2
Stomata -✓✓Pores in leaves where carbon dioxide enters the plant
Chloroplast -✓✓Organelle where photosynthesis occurs
Stroma -✓✓Fluid-filled space in chloroplast where Calvin cycle occurs
Thylakoid membrane -✓✓Inner membrane in chloroplast where light
reactions occur
Grana -✓✓Stacks of thylakoids inside chloroplast
, Chlorophyll -✓✓Green pigment that absorbs light energy
Function of pigments -✓✓Absorb solar energy for photosynthesis
Why leaves are green -✓✓Chlorophyll reflects green light but absorbs
red and blue light
Light-dependent reactions -✓✓Use sunlight to produce ATP and
NADPH and release oxygen
Calvin cycle -✓✓Uses ATP and NADPH to produce G3P (used to make
glucose)
Electron transport chain (photosynthesis) -✓✓Series of proteins that
transfer electrons and help produce ATP
Light reaction requirements -✓✓H2O, ADP, NADP+
Light reaction products -✓✓O2, ATP, NADPH
Calvin cycle requirements -✓✓ATP, NADPH, CO2, RuBP, rubisco
