  4. Spectrum - The range of all types of electromagnetic radiation, including visible light, which is crucial for photosynthesis as plants absorb specific wavelengths.
  5. Reactions - Also known as the Calvin cycle, these reactions occur in the stroma and use ATP and NADPH to convert carbon dioxide into glucose.
  6. - A coenzyme that carries electrons and hydrogen ions, produced during the light-dependent reactions and used in the Calvin cycle for glucose synthesis.
  7. - A metabolic process that occurs in plants when oxygen is incorporated into the Calvin cycle instead of carbon dioxide, leading to a reduction in photosynthetic efficiency.

  9. - Membrane-bound compartments inside chloroplasts that contain chlorophyll and are the sites of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis.
  10. - An essential reactant in photosynthesis, providing the hydrogen needed for glucose synthesis and releasing oxygen as a byproduct.
  11. - A process by which ATP is generated in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts, using the energy from the movement of protons (H+) across the membrane.
