Light Reactions
Calvin Cycle
100

This process occurs in plants and converts light energy to chemical energy.

What is photosynthesis?

100

These pores allows CO2 in and O2 out.

 What are stomata?

100

This part of a Photosystem included complex proteins associated with chlorophyll a and an electron acceptor waiting to be reduced.

What is the reaction center?

100

Light reactions occur in this location of a chloroplast.

What is the thylakoid membrane?

100

For the net synthesis of 1 G3P molecule, the Calvin Cycle must occur this many times.

 What is three?

200

Plants make their own food meaning that they are what.

What are autotrophs?

200

The green pigment in the thylakoid membranes is known as this. 

What is chlorophyll?

200

This gradient is created as electrons travel from Photosystem II to Photosystem I.

 What is H+ gradient?

200

During the light reaction, chemical energy is created from this.

What is solar/light energy?

200

The Calvin Cycle uses ATP and NADPH to reduce this molecule into G3P.

What is CO2?

300

Chloroplasts are surrounded by these many membranes.

What are two?

300

Chloroplast are found in the interior tissue of the leaf which is known as what?

What is mesophyll?

300

These complexes act as antenna for the reactions centers and have pigments.

What are light capturing complexes?

300

After the primary acceptor of Photosystem II is active, this molecule is split to bring in more electrons.

What is H2O?

300

This enzyme catalyzes CO2 to form 3-phosphoglycerate during Carbon Fixation.

What is rubisco?

400

This organelle is the location of photosynthesis.

What is chloroplast?

400

Inside of the chloroplast, the thylakoids create stacks known as this.

What is the grana?

400

This photosystem is associated with reaction center P700 because it absorbs like at 700nm.

What is Photosystem I?

400

The 2H+ protons are released to this location if the plant cell once split from H2O.

What is the thylakoid space?

400

This many ATP and NADPH are used during the Reduction phase of the Calvin Cycle.

What is 6?

500

After electrons from H2O reach the primary acceptor in Photosystem II, they pass through this to Photosystem I.

What is a electron transport chain?

500

After traveling through Photosystem I, the electrons travel down a second electron transport chain to this enzyme and form NADPH.

What is NADP+ reductase?

500

This many ATP are used to regenerate RuBP.

What is three?
