Photo-What
These are the two reactants in photosynthesis.
What is carbon dioxide and water?
This is a condition of respiration which means with oxygen.
What is aerobic?
These accelerate growth by stimulating cell enlargement.
What are cytokinins?
This is the number of carbon molecules needed to make one glucose molecule in the Calvin Cycle.
What is six?
This is a term used for organisms that can make their own food (usually from the sun).
What are autotrophs?
These are the two products in photosynthesis.
What are oxygen and glucose?
This is a condition of respiration that means without oxygen.
These stimulate growth in the stem and leaf by cell elongation.
What are gibberellins?
The energy storage mechanism needed to make glucose in the Calvin Cycle is this.
What is ATP?
This is a term used for organisms that cannot make their own food (cannot photosynthesize).
What are heterotrophs?
Though not a part of the chemical equation, this is what is needed for photosynthesis to occur.
What is light?
This type of temperature makes a plant respire more.
What is hot temperature?
These cause plants to grow slower or cease growing.
What are growth retardants?
This is the source of energy in the Calvin Cycle.
What is NADPH?
This is the part of the chloroplasts where photosynthesis occurs.
What are thylakoid membranes?
This is the number one light color that plants do not absorb.
What is green?
This is the main product in respiration.
What is carbon dioxide?
These inhibit seed germination and stem elongation.
What are auxins?
This is the part of the cell where the Calvin Cycle takes place. HINT: The space that surrounds the thylakoid membranes.
What is the stroma?
This is the first step in photosynthesis.
What is light absorption?
These are the two colors that plants absorb this light from best.
What is red and blue?
This is the main reactant in respiration.
What is oxygen?
These substances help stimulate cell division and work alonside auxins.
What is ethylene gas and abscisic acid?
This is another name for the Calvin Cycle.
What are light-independent reactions?
These are the three parts of an ATP molecule.
What are adenine, ribose, and phosphate?
