Across
- 3. set of reactions in photosynthesis that do not require light energy; energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugar; also called the Calvin cycle
- 6. clusters of proteins that span the thykloid membrane and allow hydrogen to pass through it
- 8. clusters of chlorophyll and proteins found in thylakoids
- 9. carrier molecule that transfers high-energy electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules
- 10. fluid portion of the chloroplast; outside of the thylakoids
- 11. saclike photosynthetic membranes found in chloroplasts
- 12. principal pigment of plants and other photosynthetic organisms
- 13. the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis in which energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugar
Down
- 1. set of reactions in photosynthesis that use energy from light to produce ATP and NADPH
- 2. light-absorbing molecules used by plants to gather the sun's energy
- 4. compound used by cells to store and release energy
- 5. process used by plants and other autotrophs to capture light energy and use it to power chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and energy-rich carbohydrates such as sugars and starches
- 7. series of electron carrier proteins that shuttle high-energy electrons during ATP generating reactions
