Biology Chp 8

QuestionAnswer
ATP adenosine triphosphate
Heterotroph organisms that obtain food by consuming other living things
Autotroph ` organism that makes its own food
photosynthesis process autotrophs use to make food
pigments light absorbing molecules
chlorophyll plants main pigment, makes plant green
thylakoid where chloroplast is found, sac like membranes, (mentos)
stroma fluid portion of the chloroplast/outside the thylakoid
NADP+ electron carrier
carrier electron transfers high energy electrons
light-dependent reactions part of photosynthesis that requires light in order to take place. produces ATP
light-independent uses ATP and NADPH to produce food in form of sugars, from CO2
Photosystem essential to light-dependent reactions, absorbs light and produces high energy electrons
electron transport trains series of electron carries proteins that transfer high energy electrons during ATP generated reactions
ATP synthase spands the thylakiod and alows H+ ions to pass through the membrane
Calvin cycle another name for light-independent reactions, where plants use the energy that ATP and NADPH contain to build high energy carbohydrates that get store for a long time
