Plant Cells
Chloroplasts overall function is responsible for
Photosynthesis
Outside energy source used to knock out an electron from the green pigment molecule chlorophyll in a reaction center.
A Photon
Anabolism in which energy comes from sunlight.
Phtosynthesis
There are this number of photosystems involved in the process of photosynthesis
Two
A chloroplast captures energy from sunlight and uses it to fix this element.
Carbon
Carbon Fixation uses ATP and NADPH to convert ____ into ____.
CO2, Sugars
When light is involved in ATP production, this process is called ____.
Photophosphorylation
This structure within the Chloroplast is where photosynthetic light-capturing systems and ATP synthase occurs
Thylakoid membrane
During periods of excess photosynthetic activity, much of it is retained in the chloroplast stroma and converted to ____.
Starch
Chloroplasts require only ____ and ____ as inputs for their light-driven photosynthesis reactions.
Water, Carbon Dioxide
Anabolism in which the energy comes from chemical reactions.
Chemosynthesis
The lumen of each thylakoid is connected with the lumen of the other thylakoids, thereby defining a third internal compartment known as the ______.
Thylakoid space
The reaction that occurs during photosynthesis in chloroplasts which occurs without the presence of sunlight.
Carbon Fixed Reaction
During the electron-transport process, H+ is pumped across the _____, and the resulting electrochemical proton gradient drives the synthesis of ATP.
Thylakoid membrane
6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP -> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + ADP + P
Photosynthesis Equation
The thylakoid membrane is highly folded into numerous local stacks of flattened vesicles called _____.
Grana
"Light Reactions" is another name for the _______.
Photosynthetic electron-transfer reactions.
The initial reaction in carbon fixation begins with a carboxylation reaction that allows one molecule of carbon dioxide and water to be incorporated into organic carbon molecules. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme ______.
Ribulose biphosphate carboxylase, also known as Rubisco.
In which part of the cell does photosynthesis occur in PROKARYOTES.
The Cell Membrane
