This energy source and input of photosynthesis enters the leaves and is captured by pigments in the chloroplasts.
What is sunlight.
100
This product of photosynthesis provides the plant cells with chemical energy.
What is glucose.
100
What are the seven colors of the visible light spectrum?
What is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
100
Organelles that specialize in converting light energy into chemical energy that the plant can use.
What are chloroplasts?
100
The area of the chloroplasts where Stage 2 (Calvin cycle) of photosynthesis occurs.
What is the stroma?
200
This reactant of photosynthesis enters the plant from the air through pores (holes) in the leaves.
What is carbon dioxide.
200
This product of photosynthesis is considered a byproduct because it doesn't contribute to the production of glucose or the growth of the plant.
What is oxygen?
200
The three atoms that make up carbohydrates.
What are oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen?
200
The majority of chloroplasts will be found here in a plant. (Hint: think about where the Sun shines on a plant)
What are the leaves?
200
The structures in the chloroplasts that contains the plant pigments.
What is the thylakoid?
300
All energy on Earth comes from where?

300
The reactant of photosynthesis is usually taken up through the roots of producers.
What is water.
300
The color of light reflected by chlorophyll.
What is green?
300
The product of Stage 2 of photosynthesis (Dark Cycle, Calvin Cycle)
What is sugar or glucose or carbs.
300
The number of carbon dioxide and water molecules needed for photosynthesis as well as the number of oxygen molecules produced during photosynthesis.
What is 6.
400
There are two major roles in an ecosystem. What are they?
What is consumer and producer.
400
What is the primary molecule being synthesized through the process of photosynthesis?
What is glucose.
400
The energy providing process that occurs in chloroplasts.
What is photosynthesis?
400
This part of the chloroplasts have chlorophyll that can absorb light energy from the Sun.

500
This is the part of a plant cell where photosynthesis happens.
What is chloroplasts.
500
This gets made during the light reactions (stage 1) of photosynthesis.
What are oxygen (O2) & high energy carrying molecules (ATP and NADPH)
500
This part of photosynthesis is light independent because it does not use sunlight.
What is the The Calvin Cycle or Dark Cycle or Stage 2.
500
Name the 4 different parts of a chloroplast.
What are:
Inner membrane
Outer membrane
Thylakoid
Stroma

What does the Law of Conservation of Matter state?
"Matter cannot be created nor destroyed." Matter can only be changed or recombined to form new substances.

Where does the cell get the energy to produce glucose in the Dark Cycle (stage 2)
What is the high energy carrying molecules made in the light reactions (stage 1).
1000
What is the fluid filled space inside of a chloroplast?
What is stroma.
1000
The reactant (input) is used in Stage 2 of photosynthesis (dark cycle) and provides the carbon for the glucose that will be made.
What is carbon dioxide.
