Words --> glucose + oxygen
3. Equation for Photosynthesis 6H2O + 6CO2 + light energy -->
C6H12O6 + 6O2

14. In the Calvin Cycle, ATP is used to? provide the energy for sugar synthe-
sis
15. In the Calvin Cycle, NADPH is used electrons in the reduction of carbon
for? dioxide into sugar
16. Where do light independent reac- the area in the chloroplast called the
tions (Calvin Cycle) occur? stroma
17. Leaves are green because? chlorophyll molecules absorb vio-
let-blue and red light, but reflect or
transmit green-yellow light
18. Process of light dependent reac- chlorophyll absorbs solar energy and
tions ejects an electron, which is passed
down an electron chain, and water is
split, releasing O2
19. Requirements for light dependent H2O, ADP, and NADP+
reactions
20. Products for light-dependent reac- O2 and the energy-storing com-
tions pounds ATP and NADH
21. Requirements for light-independent ATP, NADPH, CO2, a five-carbon
reactions (Calvin Cycle) sugar called RuBP, and the enzyme
rubisco
22. Products for light-independent re- Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P),
actions (Calvin Cycle) which can be used to make glucose
23. Carbon dioxide is fixed during? The Calvin Cycle
24. How is C4 photosynthesis different C3 photosynthesis produces a
from C3 photosynthesis? three-carbon compound via the
Calvin Cycle while C4 photosynthe-
sis makes an intermediate four-car-
bon compound that splits into
