Photosynthesis is.....
conversion of light energy into chemical energy
all of these
complex chemical processes that convert energy
main way solar energy is captured and stored
Which is the correct chemical equation for photosynthesis?
6CO2 + 6H20 yields to C6H1206 + 6O2
CO2 + H20 yields to C6H1206 + O2
6CO2 + H20 yields to C6H1206 + O2
6CO2 + 6H20 yields to 6C6H1206 + 6O2
How many phases does photosynthesis have?
2 phases
How are the phases of photosynthesis divided?
light-dependent reactions, light-independent reactions (Calvin Cycle)
What happens in phase 1 of photosynthesis?
light energy is captured and converted to chemical energy ATP & NADPH
What happens in phase 2 of photosynthesis?
ATP & NADPH are used to make glucose
Why is glucose important?
Glucose can be joined to form other simple sugars & complex carbohydrates
Glucose is a hydrocarbon, why is it important?
hydrocarbons can be used to build macromolecules
Where are chloroplasts found in plants (be specific)
leaves

flat, sac like membranes arranged in stacks
grana are......
stacks of thylakoids
Where do light-dependent reactions take place?
thylakoid membrane
The stroma is a ......
fluid-filled space outside the grana
What are pigments?
light absorbing colored molecules
Pigments absorb ......
specific wavelengths of light energy
In photosynthesis, electron transport happens in the ......
thylakoid membrane
