100

This reactant 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

The light reflected by the lowest wavelength of light. 

What is 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 the Calvin Cycle of photosynthesis occurs.

What is the stroma?

100

The chemical formula of glucose

What is C6H12O6?

100

This is needed to regenerate G3P to RUBP (Amount too)

What are 3 ATP?

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?

200

The majority of chloroplasts will be found here in a plant

What are the leaves?

200

The structures in the chloroplasts that contains the plant pigments. 

What is the thylakoid?

200

The four major macronutrients that are found in living things. 

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

200

The first process of the Calvin Cycle

What is carbon fixation?

300

This pigment reflects olive green

What is chlorophyll b?

300

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

What is water?

300

The color of light reflected by chlorophyll. 

What is green?

300

The 3 products of the Calvin Cycle

What are G3P, NADP+, and ADP?

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 six?

300

The structures that make up the cell membrane.

What are phospholipids?

300

Glucose is assembled into this complex carbohydrate that makes up the cell walls of plant cells. 

What is cellulose?

400

This is the last molecule to accept high energy electrons in the ETC

What is the NADP reductase?

400
The seven colors of the visible light spectrum. 

What is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet?

400

The energy providing plant process that occurs in the chloroplasts. 

What is photosynthesis?

400

The parts of a plant where gas exchange occurs  

What are the stomata?

400

The electron acceptor is ____ when it accepts excited electrons in the photosystem

What is reduced?

400

There are 3 molecules of RUBP regenerated each time 3CO2 molecules enter cycle meaning there are this many carbons total in RuBP

This would take place for a while even if there was no light.

What is the The Calvin Cycle?

500

These plants create a 4C compound at night and use during the day and dont transfer to another cell
