||||
| Visible Light Spectrum | the different wavelengths of light that we see as the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet
🗑
|
||||
| Pigments | light-absorbing molecules that plants use to gather the sun's energy
🗑
|
||||
| Chlorophyll | the plants' principal pigment for gathering the sun's energy
🗑
|

🗑
|
||||
| Products | substances formed during a reaction
🗑
|
||||
| Glucose | sugars generated by photosynthesis to produce complex carbohydrates such as starches, and to provide energy for the synthesis of other compounds, including proteins and lipids
🗑
|
||||
| Light-dependent reactions | reactions that require the direct involvement of light and light-absorbing pigments
🗑
|
||||
| Light-independent reactions | reactions do not require direct involvement of light
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
