Biology-crossword

5. electron carrier that provides high-energy electrons for photosynthesis
6. main energy source that cells use for most of their work, made up of adenosine, ribose and 3 phosphates
7. a lower-energy molecule that can be converted into ATP by the addition of a phosphate group, made up of adenosine, ribose and 2 phosphates
8. a cluster composed of hundreds of chlorophyll molecules and accessory pigments used to harvest light molecules for photosynthesis
9. stacks of thylakoids
11. A flattened membrane sac inside the chloroplast, used to convert light energy into chemical energy, site of the light reactions
12. The fluid of the chloroplast surrounding the thylakoid membrane; involved in the synthesis of organic molecules from carbon dioxide and water (Calvin/Dark reaction)
14. reactions of photosynthesis in which energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugars, also called dark reaction, no light needed, creates NADP+ and ADP, takes place in the stroma

1. organelle that is the site of ATP (energy) production, (converts glucose into ATP)
2. process by which plants and some other organisms use light energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and high-energy carbohydrates such as sugars and starches steps include: capture light, light dependent reactions, calvin cycle.
3. An organelle found only in plant and algae cell, site of photosynthesis occurs
4. reactions of photosynthesis that use energy from light to produce ATP and NADPH, also produces O2
10. green pigment in plants that absorbs light energy used to carry out photosynthesis, found in the thylakoid of the chloroplast
13. one of the carrier molecules that transfers high-energy electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules
