| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| compound used by cells to store and release energy | adenosine triphosphate |
| organism that obtains food by consuming other living things; also called a consumer | heterotroph |
| organism that is able to capture energy from sunlight or chemicals and use it to produce its own food from inorganic compounds; also called producer | autotrouph |
| process used by plants and other autotrophs to capture light energy and use it to power chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and energy-rich carbohydrates such as sugar and starches | photosynthesis |
| °Any color in plant or animal cells. | pigment |
| Any of a group of green pigments that are found in the chloroplasts of plants and in other photosynthetic organisms such as cyanobacteria. | chlorophyll |
| a folded membrane within plant chloroplasts from which grana are made, used in photosynthesis. | thylakoid |
| the tissue structure of an organ, etc., that serves to support it. | stroma |
| nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. | NADP |
| set of reactions in photosynthesis that use energy from light to produce atp and nadph | light-dependent reactions |
| set of reactions in photosynthesis that do not require light | light-independent reactions |
| Either of two biochemical systems, active in chloroplasts, that are part of photosynthesis. | photosystem |
| electron transport chain | |
| ATPsynthase | |
| calvin cycle | |
