What is photosynthesis?
The conversion of light energy into chemical energy.
200
Which is the most common chlorophyll?
Chlorophyll A

What is the chemical equation of photosynthesis?
C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
300

The Calvin Cycle starts and ends with? After 6 repetition of this a ______ molecule is formed.
1. RuBP 2. Glucose
300
What is the greenhouse effect?
Keeps the world climate warm enough for living things, not allowing the sunlight to leave the earths atmosphere.
300
The light reaction can also occur in the dark. (T/F) In Photosynthesis, the oxygen atoms from CO2 are released as O2.
False False
400
What are the three stages of photosynthesis?
Light Reaction, Dark Reaction and Light Absorption
400
Name the four accessory pigments?
Xantophylls: Yellow Carotenoids: Orange Phycoerythrin: Red Antrocyanins: Purple and Blue
400
Name two differences between C3 and C4
C3 occurs within the calvin cycle and C4 occurs within the Hatch Cycle. In C3 RuBP accepts CO2 and in C4 PEP accepts C02 In C3 it is less efficient taking CO2 C3 requires 18 ATP to form glucose, and C4 requires 30 ATP
400
Why does the atmosphere prevents sunlight from leaving?
Because of the large amounts of CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)
