Photosynthesis .

photosynthesis, parts of leaf, equations, and more

QuestionAnswer
Cuticle reduces water loss
Upper Epidermis supports; clear to let light through
Palisades Layer main photosynthetic tissue
Spongy Layer contains air spaces for diffusion of c02 in, 02 out
Stomate opening that lets co2 in and 02 out
Guard Cell closes stomate to reduce water loss
Xylem transports water from roots to leaves
Phloem transports food leaves to roots
Vein combined xylem and phloem
Lower Epidermis contains stomates
What is the general equation of photosynthesis? co2 + h20 -------> c6h1206 + 02
what are the 2 sets of reactions that take place in photosynthesis light dependent and light independent
light dependent reaction (aka photochemical)uses sunlight to break water free electrons to make ATP and NADPH
light independent reaction (ask carbon fixation) uses NADPH, ATP from light reactions to make glucose
What is photolysis? breaking down of water with suns energy
When in the chloroplast does photolysis occur? thylakoid
What are the reactants and products of photolysis? reactants: water, sun products: H+, o2, e-
What is carbon fixation? (calvin cycle) co2 ---> C6H12O6
Where does carbon fixation occur? stroma
What are the reactants and products of carbon fixation? reactants: CO2 products: glucose
What is chlorophyll? pigment that absorbs light and transfers energy
What wavelengths (colors) of light does photosynthesis occur at the quickest rate? blue, red, violet

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
