PHOTOSYNTHESIS
24
RUBP : Five carbon compound that combines with CO2 in the Calvin cycle to makeglucose
Carotenoids : Red, orange, and yellow pigments
Glucose : C6H12O6
Stroma : Fluid surrounding the thylakoids in chloroplasts
Grana : Stacks of thylakoids
Green : Color of light not reflected by chlorophyll
Carbon Fixation : Incorporating the carbon from CO2 into organic compounds such ascarbohydrates
Photosystem 2 : Water is split when light energy is absorbed
Light Reaction : Process where light energy is absorbed form the sun and converted into ATPand NADPH
Autotrophs : Use sunlight to change inorganic substances into organic compounds
Chemiosmosis : Synthesis of ATP during the light reactions
Biochemical Pathway : Complex series of chemical reactions in which the products of one reaction arethe reactants for the next
NADPH : Energy carrier made during photosynthesis
Photosystem : Clusters of pigment molecules found in the thylakoid membranes
Thylakoids : Flattened sacs in the chloroplasts that contain chlorophyll
Photosynthesis : Process used by autotrophs to make carbohydrates
Electron transport chain : Series of electron acceptors in the thylakoid membrane that removes energyfrom excited electrons to produce ATP
Heterotrophs : Animals and fungi that must depend on autotrophs for their food energy
Calvin Cycle : Process where organic compounds such as glucose are formed by using CO2, ATP,and NADPH
Pigments : Substances in plastids that absorb various wavelengths of light
Sunlight : Supplies all the energy directly or indirectly for life on earth
Cam : Pathway used by pineapples and cacti to make sugars
Chloroplasts : Organelle where photosynthesis occurs
Stomata : Openings on the underside of leaves for gas exchange
Temperature : Environmental factor that can affect the rate of photosynthesis
Water : Electrons released when this substance splits replaces electrons lost fromchlorophyll
