What does ATP stand for?
Adenosine Triphosphate.
What is the role of ATP in cells?
It is the primary energy source for cellular functions.
What does ADP stand for?
Adenosine Diphosphate.
How id ADP produced?
ADP is produced when ATP loses one phosphate group during a chemical reaction, releasing energy for cellular processes.
How do plants produce ATP?
By using sunlight in photosynthesis.
How do animals produce ATP?
By breaking down carbohydrates and sugars.
What is a pigment?
A light absorbing compound.
What is chlorophyll?
A green pigment used by plants for photosynthesis.
What colors does chlorophyll absorb?
Violet and red wavelengths.
What color does chlorophyll reflect?
Green wavelengths.
Where does photosynthesis take place?
In the chloroplast of plant cells.
What is the chloroplast surrounded by?
2 envelope membranes.
How many envelope membranes is the chloroplast surrounded by?
2.
Where are the thylakoids located?
Within the chloroplast.
What is within the chloroplast?
Thylakoids and stroma.
Where is the stroma located?
Within the chloroplast.
What do the thylakoids contain?
Chlorophyll.
What are grana?
Stacks of thylakoids.
What are stacks of thylakoids called?
Grana.
What does chlorophyll transfer its energy to?
Its own electrons.
What are high energy electrons likened to?
Hot coals.
What do high energy electron carriers carry?
High energy electrons.
How do high energy electron carriers do?
Takes high energy electrons and transports them.
What are 3 examples of high energy electron carriers?
NADP+, NADPH, and FADH.
What are the inputs of photosynthesis?
CO2+H2O (Carbon Dioxide + Water).
What is the catalyst of photosynthesis?
Light.
What are the products of photosynthesis?
C6H12O6+6O2 (Glucose + 6 Oxygen).
What do light dependent reactions require?
Light.
Where do light dependent reactions take place?
In the thylakoid membrane.
How do light dependent reactions turn ADP into ATP?
By using light energy to add another phosphate bond.
