|
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
|
