Photosynthesis

Carotenoids

________ reflect orangish light and absorb some green light which means that the energy from green is not completely reflected.

Chlorophyll

What is the pigment which resides on the thylakoid membranes of the thylakoids? Answer with a single words or term.

Autotrophs

There are two types of ways to gain nutrition in general: ________ are organisms who are able to create their own food by mainly photosynthesis.

Spectrophotometers

________ are devices that measure absorbance and the plot that is formed with absorption versus wavelength is known as an absorbance spectrum.

Water

What is split up into 2H+ and the O joins with another O that has been separated to form O2? Answer with a single words or term.

heterotrophs

All ________ depend directly or indirectly on autotrophs.

Photosystems

A(n) ________- a reaction- center complex associated with light- harvesting complexes: ________ are found below the pigments on the thylakoid membrane and are composed of two complexes: A reaction- center complex holds a special pair of chlorophyll a and a primary electron acceptor.

Stomata

What are openings in the leaf by which CO2 is able to enter and O2 is able to leave? Answer with a single words or term.

Photosynthesis

What is a redox process: Because we know that the O in H2O becomes the oxygen as a product, the H2O is oxidized to form O2? Answer with a single words or term.

G3P

________ is the final product of the dark reactions and is used in metabolic pathways to eventually become sugar or other macromolecules outside of photosynthesis.

Photons

________ are a quantized form of light and can be thought of as discrete packets of energy.
