1. chloroplasts (def.) the organelle where photosynthesis occurs
2. Photosynthesis (def.) the process of taking light energy to chemical energy (opposite
of cellular respiration)
3. Autotrophs photosynthetic organisms get carbon through carbon dioxide
4. Photoautotrophs true photosynthetic organisms get carbon from carbon dioxide
and get energy from light (most primary producers)
5. Heterotrophs depended on organic compounds for carbons (humans)
6. examples of photosynthetic Plants
organisms Cyanobacteria
Multicellular alga
Unicellular eukaryotes
Purple sulfur bacteria
7. major locations of photosyn- leaves; they have large surface area for sunlight
thesis in plants
8. mesophyll interior tissue of the leaf
contains 30-40 chloroplasts
9. stomata pore on the leaf; where carbon dioxide enters and oxygen leaves
10. chloroplast (components) stroma
double membrane organelle
thylakoids
grana/granum
chlorophyll
11. stroma fluid in chloroplasts

12. thylakoids flat membrane sacks that hold chlorophyll
13. grana/granum grana (singular)
granum (plural)
a stack of thylakoids
14. chlorophyll the photosynthetic pigment (one of them)
15. photosynthesis formula a complex series of reactions
carbon dioxide water and light energy produce glucose oxygen
and water
- endergonic process (brings in molecules)
6CO2 + 12H2O + light energy ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O
16. photosynthesis components light reaction (the photo part)
Calvin cycle (the synthesis part)
17. light reactions properties - in the thylakoids
-Split H2O release O2
-Reduce the electron acceptor NADP+(electron acceptor) to
NADPH (stores energy)
-Generate ATP from ADP by phosphorylation
18. Calvin Cycle -in the stroma
-forms sugar from CO2 using ATP and NADPH
- ATP NADPH form first system that drive production of glucose
-anabolic reaction
19. light dependent reaction set of reactions in photosynthesis that use energy from light to
produce ATP and NADPH

20. light independent reaction Calvin Cycle
set of reactions in photosynthesis that do not require light en-
ergy; receives ATP and NADPH to make glucose
21. ATP and NADP produced by light reaction that goes to Calvin cycle that gener-
ates glucose
22. electromagnetic energy light
a.k.a electromagnetic radiation
- travels in rhythmic waves
23. wavelength the distance between crests of electromagnetic waves
determines the type of electromagnetic energy
24. Electromagnetic spectrum All of the frequencies or wavelengths of electromagnetic radia-
tion; presented in a chart
25. visible light the colors we can see; 380-750nm wavelength
26. short wavelength high energy
27. long wavelength low energy
28. photons small light packages or particles
29. pigment/light behavior some pigments will absorb physical light and other wavelengths
will be reflected off;
the reflected pigment is visible to us the others are not
30. Spectrophotometer able to tell which pigment can be absorbed
