Photosynthesis
Across
- 3. making food from chemical energy instead of sunlight
- 4. atoms that are rearranged, not destroyed, in photosynthesis
- 5. the materials made by a chemical reaction
- 8. green pigment that absorbs light for photosynthesis
- 10. radiant energy from the sun needed for photosynthesis
- 12. process plants use to turn sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into food (glucose) and oxygen
- 14. the ability to do work; changes form during photosynthesis
- 15. the cells that open and close stomata
- 17. a stack of thylakoids
- 18. tiny pores on leaves where gases move in and out
Down
- 1. an organism that makes its own food
- 2. an organism that eats other organisms for energy
- 3. the cell part where photosynthesis happens
- 6. the “energy currency” molecule of the cell
- 7. tiny ocean organisms that do photosynthesis and make oxygen
- 8. the cycle that uses energy molecules to build glucose
- 9. a sugar made by plants that stores chemical energy
- 11. disc-shaped structure inside the chloroplast that captures light
- 13. fluid inside the chloroplast where glucose is built
- 16. the starting materials that go into a chemical reaction
