AB
Besides plants, what are two other types of organisms that can conduct photosynthesis?, Audio Bacteria and protists both have members that do photosynthesis.
A student notices bubbles coming off of an aquatic plant when it is exposed to bright sunlight. These bubbles are most likely ___.oxygen (because the plant is doing photosynthesis), Audio
Photosynthesis uses sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into ___., Audio oxygen and high energy sugars or starches
What are three things needed for photosynthesis?, Audio water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight
Plants gather the sun's energy with light absorbing molecules called ___.pigments
Which type of pigment is used to capture most of the sun's energy?chlorophyll, Audio
An orange pigment that captures some of the sun's energy is called ___.carotene
Most plants appear green because chlorophyll ____ green light.reflects
Which region of the visible spectrum is not absorbed well by chlorophyll?green
Which region of the visible spectrum is not absorbed well by carotene?orange
What is a granum (singular of grana)?It's a stack of thylakoids inside a chloroplast.
The region of the chloroplast that is outside of the thylakoids is called the ___.stroma
Where in the chloroplast can chlorophyll be found?In the thylakoids
Where do the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place?, Audio Within the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast
What are the products of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis?, Audio Oxygen gas, ATP and NADPH
Where do the electrons that travel through the electron transport chain of photosynthesis originally come from?, Audio They are stripped from water molecules.
What happens to water molecules when they are stripped of electrons during photosynthesis?The water molecules fall apart, producing hydrogen ions and oxygen gas.
During which stage of photosynthesis is water needed?, Audio light-dependent reactions
During which stage of photosynthesis is carbon dioxide needed?, Audio the Calvin Cycle (a.k.a. the light-independent or dark reactions)
During which stage of photosynthesis is oxygen produced?, Audio light-dependent reactions
During which stage of photosynthesis is the energy from ATP and NADPH used to produce high energy sugars?, Audio the Calvin Cycle (a.k.a. the light-independent or dark reactions)
Which products of the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis are needed during the Calvin Cycle?NADPH and ATP
For a tree doing photosynthesis, where does the carbon dioxide that is needed during the Calvin Cycle come from?, Audio the atmosphere
The Calvin Cycle of photosynthesis is another name for the _____., Audio light-independent reactions
What is the product of the Calvin Cycle of photosynthesis?High energy sugars
Where does the Calvin Cycle of photosynthesis take place?In the stroma of the chloroplast
What is the name of this entire structure?, chloroplast,
What is #1 pointing to?, A thylakoid inside a chloroplast,
What is #2 pointing to?, The grana of the chloroplast (a granum is a single stack of thylakoids),
What is #3 pointing to?, The stroma of the chloroplast,
What is the overall chemical equation for photosynthesis?, Audio .,
