2. Photosynthesis removes______ from the Atmosphere.

3. Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

4. An important by-product of photosynthesis needed by aerobes.

5. Oxygen (O2)

6. Ecological role played by all autotrophs.

7. Producers

8. Kingdom in which all members are autotrophic.

9. Plants

10. Removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere helps combat _________

11. Global warming & the “greenhouse effect”

12. Electromagnetic energy that we can see is called the:

13. Visible Spectrum

14. The visible spectrum includes the colors of light ranging from
______ to ______

15. Violet to Red

16. Plants do not use which color of light in photosynthesis?

17. Green

18. Which wavelength has greater energy, Blue or Orange?

19. Blue

20. Predict what would happen if suddenly only green light reached the earth

21. Photosynthesis would stop
Photosynthesis would stop! Plants would die, we would run out food and O2, temperatures would rise

22. The two stages of photosynthesis are the:

23. Light Reactions
2) Dark reactions or the Calvin Cycle

24. Raw material used in the Light Reactions

25. Water

26. Waste product produced from the Light Reactions

27. Oxygen (O2)

28. Raw material used in the Dark Reactions

29. Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

30. Important Enzyme used to help join CO2 with RuBP

31. Rubisco

32. Structure where photosynthesis takes place in eukaryotic cells.

33. Chloroplasts

34. The Light Reactions take place on membranes called the:

35. Thylakoid membranes

36. The _______ is to a chloroplast as the cytoplasm is to a whole cell.

37. Stroma

38. Tissue in leaves that performs photosynthesis

39. Mesophyll

40. The Calvin Cycle takes place in the ________ of chloroplasts

41. Stroma

42. Plants control water loss by:

43. Closing stomata and by producing a waxy covering, the cuticle

44. Why does closing stomata inhibit photosynthetic rate?

45. CO2 can’t get in and O2 can’t get out

46. The end product of photosynthesis is:

47. PGAL (glucose is an OK answer)

48. Photorespiration occurs when:

49. Oxygen levels get too high

50. Name two adaptations that allow some plants to be productive during times of high temperatures.

51. C4 and CAM
