Plants need what to carry on photosynthesis?
H2O and CO2
Organisms that derive their chemical energy either from the process of chemosynthesis or photosynthesis are
autotrophs
The light-independent reactions were discovered by
both Andrew Benson and Melvin Calvin
Photons are
packages of solar energy
Chlorophyll absorbs
energy from light
Photons with different energy levels
produce different colors
Chlorophyll reflects (does not absorb) which color of light?
green
Where in a plant cell is chlorophyll found?
on the outer chloroplast membrane
What is the difference between a photoautotroph and a heteroautotroph?
photoautotroph is fed by sunlight, carbon source is CO2, heterotroph feeds off of photoautotroph
Aerobic respiration
energy releasing pathway, requires oxygen, releases carbon dioxide
Photosynthesis is
energy storing pathway, releases oxygen, requires carbon dioxide
These are the organelles of photosynthesis
chloroplasts
What is the photosynthesis equation?
(light energy)
12H2O + 6CO2 -------> 602 + C6- H12-O6 + 6H20

C6 H12 O6, H2O
What are the products in a dark reaction?
C6 H12 O6, H2O
Which "things" link light/dark rxns?
