Photosynthesis
Across
- 2. saclike photosynthetic membranes are called
- 5. plants use the energy of sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into high energy carbohydrates
- 6. synthase spans the membrane and allows H+ ions to pass through it
- 11. proteins in the thylakoid membrane organize chlorophyll and other pigments into clusters known as
- 12. a principal chemical compound that cells use to store and release energy
- 13. cycle a cycle that uses ATP and NADPH to produce high-energy sugars
- 15. light absorbing molecules
Down
- 1. organisms that do not obtain energy from the sun but from the foods which they consume
- 3. dependent a reaction that can only occur when light is present
- 4. a plants principal pigment
- 7. performed an experiment that would provide another insight to photosynthesis
- 8. one of the carrier molecules in the ETC (Electron Transport Chain)
- 9. organisms which make their own food
- 10. the calvin cycle takes place here
- 12. has two phosphate groups instead of three
- 14. Helmont a scientist who devised an experiment to find out if plants grewby taking material out of the soil
