This catalyst of photosynthesis enters the leaves and is captured by pigments in the chloroplasts

What is sunlight?

100

This product of photosynthesis is the simplest carbohydrate and provides the plant cells with chemical energy.

What is glucose?

100

This type of reaction requires sunlight

What is a light-dependent reaction?

100

The chemical formula of glucose

What is C6H12O6?

200

This reactant of photosynthesis enters the plant from the air through pores in the leaves.

What is carbon dioxide?

200

This product of photosynthesis is considered a waste 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?

What are lipids, proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids?

300

These types of plants close their stomata during the day, only opening them up at night

What are CAM plants?

300

This process would take place even if the plant no longer has sunlight

What is the The Calvin Cycle?

300

The color of light reflected by chlorophyll

What is green?

300

The structures that make up the cell membrane

400

These are the last molecules to accept high energy electrons in the ETC

What is the NADP+ and ADP?

400

The reactant of photosynthesis that contributes to the concentration gradient of the thylakoid

What is water?

400

The energy providing plant process that occurs in the chloroplasts. 

What is photosynthesis?

400

The food produced by plants is this type of macromolecule

What is a carbohydrate?

500

This molecule absorbs all light, except green

What is chlorophyll?

500

What are oxygen, ATP, and NADPH?

500

The structures in the chloroplasts that contains the plant pigments

What is the thylakoid?

500

ADP becomes ATP with the addition of this molecule

What are phosphates?
