Photosynthesis
Across
- 3. Series of reactions in the stroma that produce glucose
- 12. Accessory pigment that absorbs different wavelengths of light
- 13. Organelle in plant cells where photosynthesis occurs
- 15. Energy-carrying molecule produced during the light reactions
- 16. Protein complex that absorbs light and helps produce NADPH
- 17. Fluid-filled space in chloroplasts where the Calvin cycle occurs
- 19. Molecule that absorbs light energy, e.g., chlorophyll or carotenoids
Down
- 1. Green pigment in plants that absorbs sunlight for photosynthesis
- 2. Energy source required for the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis
