What are chloroplasts?
The site of photosynthesis in plants.
|
What is light?
This is a form of electromagnetic energy.
|
What is photorespiration?
O2 substitutes for CO2 in this plant energy making process.
|
What is 6 CO2 + 12 H2O + Light Energy ---> C6H1206 + 6 02 + 6 H2O
What is the equation for photosynthesis?
|
What is chloroplast a?
The main photosynthetic pigment.
|
What are C4 plants?
These plants minimize the cost of photorespiration by incorporating CO2 into four-carbon compounds.
|
What are chloroplasts?
This organelle splits water into hydrogen and oxygen.
|
What is an electron?
This gets bumped up to another energy level.
|
What are CAM plants?
These plants open their stomata at night.
|
What is a redox process?
Photosynthesis is this kind of process.
|
What is noncyclic electron flow?
This produces NADPH, ATP, and oxygen.
|
What is rubisco?
The active site for photorespiration.
|
What is ATP?
What kind of energy is used in photosynthesis?
|
What is calvin cycle?
This uses ATP and NADPH to convert CO2 to sugar.
|
What are organic compounds?
This is produced by photosynthesis and provides the energy for building materials for ecosystems.
