A process in which plants convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of organic compounds (Carbohydrates). Photosynthesis
Organelle where the process of photosynthesis occurs. Chloroplast
Gives plants its green color by reflects green light. Chlorophyll
Organisms that use energy from sunlight to make organic compounds through the process of photosynthesis. Autotrophs
What part of the photosynthesis process does this occur? light + 6 C O₂ + 6 H₂0 Reactant
What part of the photosynthesis process does this occur? C₆H₁₂0₆ + 6 0₂ Product
Glucose and oxygen --> water and carbon dioxide Process performed by: Plants and animals
Animals and organisms that consume other organisms to get energy. Heterotrophs
Where does Energy for life comes that is used in photosynthesis? Sun
Where does carbon atoms come from in the photosynthesis process? Carbon dioxide
Where does Oxygen atoms come from in the photosynthesis process? Water H 2 O
What is energy used for? Growth and reproduction Movement Transport material across the cell membrane
A product of photosynthesis that is used as an energy source by all living organisms. Glucose
Energy Flow Light energy --> chemical energy --> usable energy
Energy Flow Sun --> Chlorophyll--> Glucose
Two stages of photosynthesis Light reaction Calvin Cycle
The reaction that produce organic compounds(carbohydrates). Calvin Cycle
Energy used n the Calvin Cycle comes from ATP and NADPH
