3

Stroma

Who is the inner liquid portion of the chloroplast? Answer with a single words or term.

New cards
4

Dark Reactions

What are also known as the Calvin Cycle? Answer with a single words or term.

New cards
5

Chloroplast

A(n) ________ is an organelle in the cells of the plant that is where photosynthesis occurs and needs energy in order to grow.

New cards
6

discs

A Granum is a stack of discs and the thylakoid is one of the ________. The ________ are important because they trap the energy from the sunlight and that energy trapped is used in the Calvin cycle in order to fix carbon from CO2 and create sugar.

New cards
7

Light reactions

What are light- dependent and need light? Answer with a single words or term.

New cards
8

➔ Dark reactions

________ aka Calvin Cycle and can also be known as light- independent reactions meaning that it still occurs in the light but that part isnt dependent on Photons; it doesn't need light.

New cards
9

➔ Light reactions

Breaking Down Photosynthesis: Two Stages: ________ aka light- dependent meaning that they need light to occur; need photons and water.

New cards
10

product of the Calvin cycle

Who is sugar which is then regenerated and used again in the light- dependent reactions which is the light reaction? Answer with a single words or term.

New cards
11

Thylakoid discs

What are one disc of a granum? Answer with a single words or term.

New cards
12

Photosynthesis

________ is important for plants because plants do ________ in order to create carbohydrates from inorganic substances so that the plant can have energy in order to grow and make their food.

New cards
13

Chloroplasts

________ are important because they are needed in order for photosynthesis to occur and without energy then the plant wont be able to grow.

New cards
14

Light reactions

________ occur in the thylakoid discs.

New cards
15

Light reactions

________ need light /sunlight in order to proceed but the dark reaction does not need light, it occurs when the sun is out and they dont need the photons but needs the byproducts.

New cards
16

light reaction

The ________ produces oxygen, ATP and NADPH which can be used in dark reactions.
