General
Organisms that obtains its energy from abiotic sources like sunlight and inorganic chemicals
Producers
The part of photosynthesis that light-dependent reactions describes (photo or synthesis)
Photo
The type energy that light-independent reactions does not need
Light
The color/ wavelength that plants normal do NOT absorb
Green
The group of molecules that occurs first between photosystem I and photosystem II
Photosystem II
The other name for light-independent reactions
The Calvin Cycle
The organelle where photosynthesis occurs
Chloroplast
The waste product that is released when H2O is broken down by enzymes
O2/ Oxygen
The part of the chloroplast where light-independent reactions occur
Stroma
An energy-containing molecule that is used in photosynthesis
ATP and/or NADPH
The series of proteins in the thylakoid membrane that converts light energy into chemical energy
Electron transport chain
The input and output of light-independent reactions
Input: CO2 Output: Glucose/sugar
The inputs and outputs of photosynthesis
CO2 + H2O -> O2 + C6H12O6
The ion that is diffused to create the energy that makes ATP
Hydrogen ions
The purpose of the two 3-carbon molecules after being converted from the 6-carbon molecule.
One stays to accept new CO2 molecules and the other leaves the cycle to create a sugar.
