autotroph |
an organism capable of producing its own food |
|
Calvin cycle |
the reactions of photosynthesis that use the energy stored by the light-dependent reactions to form glucose and other carbohydrate molecules |
|
carbon fixation |
the process of converting inorganic CO2 gas into organic compounds |
|
chlorophyll |
the green pigment that captures the light energy that drives the reactions of photosynthesis |
|
chloroplast |
the organelle where photosynthesis takes place |
|
granum |
a stack of thylakoids located inside a chloroplast |
|
heterotroph |
an organism that consumes other organisms for food |
|
light-dependent reaction |
the first stage of photosynthesis where visible light is absorbed to form two energy-carrying molecules (ATP and NADPH) |
|
mesophyll |
the middle layer of cells in a leaf |
|
photoautotroph |
an organism capable of synthesizing its own food molecules (storing energy), using the energy of light |
|
photosystem |
a group of proteins, chlorophyll, and other pigments that are used in the light dependent reactions to absorb light energy and convert it into chemical energy |
|
stomata |
the opening that regulates gas exchange and water regulation between leaves and the environment; plural: stomata |
|
thylakoid |
a disc-shaped membranous structure inside a chloroplast where the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place using chlorophyll embedded in the membranes |
|
stroma |
the fluid-filled space surrounding the grana inside a chloroplast where the Calvin cycle reactions of photosynthesis take place |
