Photosynthesis Review crossword puzzle
Across
  1. Oxygen is produced in photosynthesis from the water that is oxidized.
  2. Cell A plant cell is a eukaryotic cell enclosed by a cell wall, containing a membrane-bound nucleus and other cell organelles.
  3. The main function of xylem is to transport water upwards from the roots to the rest of the plant.
  4. (in green plant cells) a plastid that contains chlorophyll and in which photosynthesis takes place.
  5. The sun gives off a mix of mostly red and blue light, these are the colors that chlorophyll absorbs best. Without sunlight, plants would not be able to live and there would be no oxygen for people to breathe.
  6. Light The best wavelengths of visible light for photosynthesis fall within the blue range (425–450 nm) and red range (600–700 nm).
  7. A green pigment, present in all green plants and in cyanobacteria, responsible for the absorption of light to provide energy for photosynthesis.
  8. six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules.
  9. Stomata allow a plant to take in carbon dioxide.
