1

Stroma

The thick matrix within a chloroplast

New cards
2

Thylakoid

Membranous sacs where photosynthesis occurs

New cards
3

Grana

Stacks of thylakoids

New cards
4

Light

packets of energy that have specific wavelengths and are made up of photons

New cards
5

Pigment

molecules that absorb specific wavelengths of light

New cards
6

Absorption spectrum

A graph that demonstrates wavelengths (colors) of light absorbed

New cards
7

Action spectrum

A graph that demonstrates the wavelengths (colors) of light used; essentially the sum total of the absorption spectrum

New cards
8

Englemann’s Experiment

An experiment in which a long filament of algae had different sections exposed to different wavelengths of light using a prism and growth of aerobic bacteria determined the action spectrum

New cards
9

Photosystem II

A complex in the membrane of the thylakoid that uses light to excite and pass on electrons to a primary electron acceptor and into the electron transport chain

New cards
10

Photolysis

The process of using light energy to split water molecules; used in photosynthesis to replaced lost excited electrons in the pigments of photosystem II

New cards
11

Photosystem I

A complex in the thylakoid membrane that receives electrons from the electron transport chain to re-excite pass on to a primary acceptor to pass on to NADP+ reductase

New cards
12

NADP+ reductase

an enzyme in the thylakoid membrane that takes NADP+ and pairs it with an NADPH to send to the Calvin cycle
