Across
  1. 1. a green pigment, present in all green plants and in cyanobacteria, responsible for the absorption of light to provide energy for photosynthesis
  2. 2. an enzyme present in plant chloroplasts, involved in fixing atmospheric carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and in oxygenation of the resulting compound during photorespiration.
  3. 8. a series of compounds that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors
  4. 10. a simple sugar that is an important energy source in living organisms and is a component of many carbohydrates.
  5. 11. the set of chemical reactions that take place in chloroplasts during photosynthesis
Down
  1. 1. The gas required to photosynthesize
  2. 3. contains chlorophyll and in which photosynthesis takes place.
  3. 4. the process by which plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water
  4. 5. energy captured from light by chlorophyll and its accessory pigments drives the production of ATP
  5. 6. Liquid used to photosynthesize
  6. 7. any of the minute pores in the epidermis of the leaf or stem of a plant, forming a slit of variable width that allows movement of gases in and out of the inter-cellular spaces.
  7. 9. The gas photosynthesis produces.
  8. 12. transports chemical energy within cells for metabolism
