---|---|---|---|---|---|
Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) | Compound used by cells to store and release energy
🗑
|
||||
Heterotroph | Organism that obtains food by consuming other living things; also called a consumer
🗑
|
||||
Autotroph | Organism that is able to capture energy from sunlight or chemicals and use it to produce its own food from inorganic compounds; also called a producer.
🗑
|
||||
Photosynthesis | 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 sugars and starches.
🗑
|
||||
Pigment | Light-absorbing molecule used by plants to gather the sun's energy.
🗑
|
||||
Chlorophyll | Principal pigment of plants and other photosynthetic organisms
🗑
|
||||
Thylakoid | Sac-like photosynthetic membranes found in chloroplasts.
🗑
|
||||
Stroma | Fluid portion of the chloroplast; outside of the thylakoids.
🗑
|
||||
NADP+ | Carrier molecule that transfers high-energy electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules. (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate)
🗑
|
||||
Light-Dependent Reactions | Set of reactions in photosynthesis that use energy from light to produce ATP and NADPH.
🗑
|
||||
Light-Independent Reactions | Set of reactions in photosynthesis that do not require light; energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugar; also called the Calvin Cycle.
🗑
|
||||
Photosystem | Cluster of chlorophyll and proteins found in thylakoid.
🗑
|
||||
Electron Transport Chain | Series of electron carrier proteins that shuttle high-energy electrons during ATP-generating reactions
🗑
|
||||
ATP Synthase | Cluster of proteins that span the cell membrane and allow hydrogen ions (H+) to pass through it.
🗑
|
||||
Calvin Cycle | Light-independent reactions of photosynthesis in which energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugar.
🗑

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.
