Energy
This molecule's phosphate groups are the key to its ability to store energy
This organelle in a plant cell is the place that photosynthesis takes place in.
What is the chloroplast?
This is the location of the light dependent reactions.
What is the thylakoid?
These proteins in the thylakoid membrane are filled with chlorophyll and absorb sunlight.
What are the photosystems?
If you increase the intensity of light on a plant, this happens to the rate of photosynthesis.
What is speed up?
Cells can release energy stored in ATP by breaking these.
What are chemical bonds?
This is the name of the pigment that captures energy in sunlight.
What is chlorophyll?
The light independent reactions are also called this.
What is the Calvin Cycle?
This is the name given to the system of proteins that moves electrons across the light dependent reaction.
What is the electron transport chain?
This is a overall product of the light independent reactions. (think in general!)
What are sugars?
What is two?
Chloroplasts are filled with these saclike, chlorophyll containing membranes.
What are thylakoids?
This molecule is required for the light dependent reactions to begin.
What is water? (H2O)
This is the protein complex at the end of the light dependent reactions that spins and helps diffuse H+ ions.
This kind of plant, sounding like an explosive, has a mutation that lets the plant store energy in 4-carbon molecules, not 3.
What is a C4 plant?
This is the name for an organism that makes food for itself.
What is autotroph?
The portion of the chloroplast outside of the grana is called this.
What is the stroma?
These two molecules are produced in the light dependent reactions, and are sent to the light independent reactions as a source of energy.
What are ATP and NADPH?
There is a higher concentration of H+ ions in this part of the chloroplast.
What is the thylakoid?
This kind of plant, sounding like a name, will close its stomata to preserve water.
What is a CAM plant?
ATP is a good source of energy because cells can do this process if they run out.
What is regenerate ATP?
This opening on the underside of leaves lets in carbon dioxide and lets out oxygen.
What is the stomata?
Give me the full equation (in words) for photosynthesis.
bonus points for accurate numbers!
The light dependent reactions ultimately produce this amount of NADPH.
What is two?
This is the name of the molecule produced at the end of the light independent reaction.
What is G3P?
