what the difference between Hetrotrophs and autotrophs
|
Autotraphs make there own food and hetrotrophs get food by eating plants and grasses
|
|
Van Helmont's experiment
|
concluded that trees get most of there mass from water
|
|
What is located in Chloroplast's Structure
|
contains a grana, Thylakoids, Stroma , and the stroma is outside of the thylakids
|
|
Grana
|
Thylakoids are interconnected and arranged in stacks known as grana. They look like hamburger patties stacked
|
|
Thylakoids
|
sac like photosynthetic membranes located in the chloraplast
|
|
Stroma
|
the fluid portion of the chlorplast outside the thylakoids
|
|
location of light dependent reactions
|
thylakoids membrane
|
|
ATP and ADP's roles in photosynthesis
|
Like dependent reaction use energy from sunlight to produce oxygen and convert ADP and NADPH into the enery carriers ATP and NADPH
|
|
Products and Biproducts of light independent reactions/ Calvin Cycle
|
trapped the energy of sunlight in chemical form and produce stable, high energy sugars from carbon dioxide and water
|
|
Products and byproducts of light dependent reactions
|
they produce oxygen gas and convert ADP and NADP+ into energy carriers ATP and NADPH
|
|
Path of the flow of electrons in light dependent reactions
|
the high energy are passed through the electron transport train. as electrons are lost new electrons come from water molecules.
|
|
What is waters role in photosynetesis
|
one of the most important factors. Shortage of water can slow or even stop photosynthesis
|
|
What is Heterotroph? List an example
|
organism that obtains food by consuming other living things; also called a consumer. An example is a cheetah who eats other plant eating animals, or animals that eat plants, and lastly a mushroom that absorbs decomposing organisms.
|
|
WHat is Autograph? List an example
|
organism that is able to capture energy from sunlight or chemicals and use it to produce its own food from inorganic compounds; also called a producer. Examples : algae, plants and some bacteria use sunlight to produce food
|
|
ATP stands for what? and what is it?
|
adenosine triphosphate. It is a compound used by cells to store and release energy
|
|
The process in which autographs use sunlight to produce high energy carbohydrates is called?
|
Photosynthesis
|
|
What is the difference between ADP and ATP?
|
ATP has three phosphate groups and ADP has only two
|
|
Organisms that make their own food are called?
|
autotrophs
|
|
Energy is released upon the conversion of
|
ATP to ADP
|
|
One way cells use the energy provided by ATP is to do what?
|
carry out active transport
|
|
WHy are mushrooms considered heterotrophs instead of autotrophs?
|
Mushrooms eat by absorbing decomposing nutrients from the ground organisms
|
|
What is the light-absorbing molecules used by plants to gather the sun’s energy?
|
Pigment
|
|
WHat is the principal pigment of plants and other photosynthetic organisms
|
Chlorophyll
|
|
What are the ORGANELLE found in cells of plants and some other organisms that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy
|
chloroplast
|
|
The reactants of photosynthesis are?
|
CO2 and H2O
|
|
Chlorophyll moelcules are located in the ?
|
thylakoid membranes
|
|
Photosynthesis takes place inside organelles called
|
chloroplasts
|
|
The electrons carried by NADPH are similar to a hot potato in that both....
|
have a lot of energy and require a carrier to be transported
|
|
What would happen to a healthy green leaf that was covered with aluminum foli>
|
The leaf would lose it green color due to breakdown of chlorophyll in the leaf
|
|
The light dependent reactions uses energy from sunlight to produce?
|
ADP and NADP+ into the energy CARRIERS ATP and NAPH
|
|
Where does the locations of the light-dependent reactions take place?
|
Inside of the Thylakoid
|
|
What does the light dependent reaction generate?????
|
ATP and NADPH
|
|
Inside of the thlylakoids there are clusters of _______ and _______
|
Chlorophyll and prootein
|
|
What is the reactions of photosynthesis are made possible by enzyme that function at what temperature?
|
0-35 Celius
|
|
What is the role of NADP+ and NADPH in photosynthesis?
|
(Mitt) NADP+ is a transporter and picks up high energy electrons. As a result it is converted to NADPH
|
|
What is the role of Carbon Dioxide in photosynthesis
|
Carbon dioxide enters the Calvin Cycle through the atmosphere and enzyme combines with carbon dioxide and produces 3 carbon compounds into higher energy forms for the rest of the cycles
|
|
What is water role in photosynthesis?
|
Water combined with carbon dioxide produces high energy sugars when chemical energy is used to combine with light energy reactions.
|
|
What is the cycle called that light-independent reactions of photosynthesis in which energy from ATP & ADPH is used to build high energy compounds such as sugar
|
Calvin Cycle
|
|
Why are plants green?
|
The chlorophyll in the plant cell reflects the green light, which is why plants look green.
|
|
Where is chlorophyll located in the chloroplast?
|
In the thylakoid membrane
|
