SCIENCE!!!
Across
- 3. a green pigment responsible for the absorption of light to provide energy for photosynthesis
- 6. to take in matter or energy
- 7. An organism that cannot make its own food and instead obtains its energy by eating organic substances, usually plant or animal matter
- 9. a chemical compound that absorbs and reflects light
- 10. (in green plant cells) an organelle that contains chlorophyll and where photosynthesis takes place
- 11. a colorless gas; released as a product of photosynthesis
- 12. Found in all forms of life, is often referred to as the "molecular unit of currency" of energy
Down
- 1. the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to make high energy sugars (glucose) from carbon dioxide and water
- 2. membrane- membrane in a chloroplast where the light reactions of photosynthesis occur
- 4. an organism capable of making its own food using light or chemical energy
- 5. dioxide- a colorless, odorless gas; is absorbed by plants in photosynthesis
- 8. To throwback (heat, light, or sound) without absorbing it
