photosynthesis bio
Across
- 3. Set of reactions in photosynthesis that use energy from light to produce ATP and NADPH
- 4. Compound used by cells to store and release energy
- 5. Set of reactions in photosynthesis that do not require light, complex sugars are made
- 8. Process used by autotrophs to capture light energy and use it to power chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and water into sugars
- 9. the biological conversion of one or more carbon-containing molecules and nutrients into organic matter using the oxidation of inorganic compounds or ferrous ions as a source of energy, rather than sunlight, as in photosynthesis.
- 10. Principal pigment of plants and other photosynthetic organisms
Down
- 1. the process by which biological fuels are oxidised in the presence of an inorganic electron acceptor, such as oxygen, to drive the bulk production of adenosine triphosphate, which contains energy
- 2. Saclike photosynthetic membranes found in chloroplasts
- 6. Light-independent reactions of photosynthesis in which energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugar
- 7. Light-absorbing molecule used by plants to gather the sun's energy
