Photosynthesis Terms

9.1-9.2 Key Terms

QuestionAnswer
light absorbing pigment in plants and some protists that is required for photosynthesis; absorbs most wavelengths of light except for green Chlorophyll
process by which autotrophs, such as algae and plants, trap energy from sunlight with chlorophyll and uses this energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into simple sugars Photosynthesis
reaction taking place in the thylakoid membranes of a chloroplast during light dependent reactions where two molecules of water are split to form oxygen, hydrogen ions, and electrons Photolysis
energy storing molecule in cells composed of an adenosine molecule, a ribose sugar and three phosphate groups; energy is sotred in the molecule's chemical bonds and is used quickly and easily by cells. ATP
molecules that absorb specific wavelengths of sunlight Pigments
series of reactions during the light-independent phase of photosynthesis in which simple sugars are formed from carbon dioxide using ATP and hydrogen from the light dependent reactions. Calvin Cycle
series of proteins embedded in a membrane along which energized electrons are transported; as electrons are passed from molecule to molecule, energy is released ETC
molecule formed from the breaking off of a phosphate group for ATP; results in a release of energy that is used for biological reactions ADP
