Photosynthesis
Across
- 2. a cyclic set of reactions occurring in the stroma of chloroplasts that fixes the carbon of CO2 into carbohydrate molecules and recycles coenzymes.
- 3. A series of progressively stronger electron accepters
- 5. where photosynthesis takes place
- 6. a compound that donates one hydrogen atom and two electrons to another molecule, to reform NADP, is an electron donor
- 10. a chemical reaction in which a compound is broken down by light.
- 11. C6H12O6
Down
- 1. the process of incorporating CO2 into carbohydrate molecules
- 4. a process for synthesizing ATP using the energy of an electrochemical gradient and the ATP synthase enzyme
- 7. photosynthetic pigments embedded in a thylakoid membrane of a cholroplast that absorbs light energy
- 8. a molecule containing three high-energy phosphate bonds that act as the primary energy-transferring molecule in living organisms
- 9. water
- 12. carbon dioxide
