Across
- 3. Light-absorbing pigment molecule in photosynthetic organisms
- 4. Parts of photosynthesis that uses energy absorbed during the light-dependent reactions to synthesize carbohydrates
- 7. Low energy molecule that can be converted to ATP
- 9. Process by which light energy is converted to chemical energy; produces sugar and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water
Down
- 1. Series of proteins in the thylakoid and mitochondrial membranes that aid in converting ADP to ATP by transferring electrons
- 2. Process by which ATP is synthesized by using chemicals as an energy source instead of light
- 4. Part of photosynthesis that absorbs energy from sunlight and transfers energy to the light-independent reactions
- 5. Membrane-bound structure within chloroplasts that contains chlorophyll and other light-absorbing pigments used in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis
- 6. High energy molecule that contains, within its bonds, energy that cells can use
- 8. Series of light-absorbing pigments and proteins that capture and transfer energy in the thylakoid membrane
