Energy and Life
Organisms that make their own food.
What are autotrophs?
Plants use the energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into high energy carbohydrates and oxygen.
What is photosynthesis?
Chloroplasts contain saclike photosynthetic membranes called this.
What are thylakoids?
The light collecting units of the chloroplasts are known as this.
What are photosystems?
The region outside of the thylakoid membranes is known as this.
What is the stroma?
Organisms that obtain energy from eating other organisms.
What are heterotrophs?
Give the formula for photosynthesis
What is 6CO2 + 6H2O --light--> C6H12O6 + 6O2
The two main parts or sections of photosynthesis.
What are light dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle?
What us one of the carrier molecules used in photosynthesis?
What is NADP+?
The correct order to the photosystems is this.
What is photosystem II and photosystem I?
The basic energy source of all cells. GIVE ENTIRE NAME, not just shorthand.
What is adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
This green pigment can be found in chloroplasts and is the main pigment used during photosynthesis.
What is chlorophyll?
This occurs during a light dependent reaction.
What is... produce oxygen gas and convert ADP and NADP+ into ATP and NADPH?
The Calvin Cycle uses these things in order to produce this.
What is ATP, NADPH, and sugar?
These factors affect Photosynthesis. Give me all three.
What is water amount, temperature, and light intensity.
List some forms that energy might come in.
What is light, heat, electricity, sound, chemical, mechanical, nuclear, gravitational, etc...
Chlorophyll absorbs this type of light very well.
What is blue violet and red light?
Give the proper order of the light dependent reaction process.
What is Photosystem II, Electron Transport Chain, Photosystem I, Hydrogen Ion Movement, ATP Formation?
These molecules enter the Calvin Cycle to get it started.
What are 6 carbon dioxide molecules.
This protein in the cell membrane allows H+ ions to pass through it to create energy.
What is ATP Synthase?
List the components of an ATP molecule.
What are Adenine, ribose (5 carbon sugar), and three phosphate groups.
The experiments performed by these three scientists led to work by other scientists who finally discovered that in the presences of light, plants transform carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates, and they also release oxygen.
Who are van Helmont, Priestley, and Ingenhousz?
Each water molecule in a light dependent reaction gets broken up into this.
What are 2 electrons, 2 H+ ions, and 1 oxygen atom?
Out of the twelve 3 carbon molecules in the Calvin Cycle, how many are actually used to make sugars?
What are two?
H+ ions move from this part of the chloroplast to this part, creating a high concentration of H+ ions.
What is the stroma to the inner thylakoid membrane?
