The three main factors affecting photosynthesis
What are light intensity, access to water, and temperature?
What is the chloroplast?
What is adenine, ribose, and phosphate groups?
The structure where these reactions occur
What are the thylakoids/thylakoid membranes?
What is the stroma?
What is 0 - 35 degrees celsius?
The products of photosynthesis
Oxygen and glucose
What is adenosine diphosphate?
The molecules produced during these reactions
What are NADPH, ATP, and oxygen?
What is Calvin's Cycle?
The name of the two types of plants that have adapted to perform photosynthesis in not ideal environments
What are C4 and CAM plants?
The reactants of photosynthesis
What are water and carbon dioxide?
The analogy used to describe the cycle between ADP and ATP
What is a rechargeable battery?
The analogy used to talk about electron carriers and high-energy electrons
What are oven mitts and hot potatoes?
Where the carbon dioxide used to make glucose comes from?
What is the atmosphere?
CAM plants, such as cacti or pineapple plants, trap what in their leaves?
What is carbon dioxide?
The two intermediate (in-between) reactions that make up photosynthesis
What are the light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions?
The four steps within the light-dependent reactions
What is photosystem II, the electron transport chain, photosystem I, and H+ ion movement and ATP formation?
The number of ATP and NADPH molecules required to power the Calvin's Cycle
What are 18 and 12, respectively?
What is the capture of low levels of carbon dioxide, working under intense light and high temperatures?
What is 6CO2+6H2O —> C6H12O6 + 6O2 ?
The electron carrier in photosynthesis is produced during THIS reaction
What is NADPH and light-dependent reactions?
This type of transport drives the movement of hydrogen ions out of the thylakoid into the stroma
What is facilitated diffusion?
The number of 3-carbon sugars that leave the Calvin's cycle to go on to build other macromolecules, such as lipids and proteins
What is 2?
