Across
  1. 2. Glucose, NADP+ and ADP.
  2. 7. carbon dioxide, NADPH and ATP.
  3. 8. A colored chemical compound that absorbs light.
  4. 9. Conversion of light energy from the sun into chemical energy.
  5. 13. water, NADP+ and ADP.
  6. 16. carrier molecule produced in the light dependent reactions that transfers high-energy electrons and hydrogen to the Calvin Cycle.
  7. 19. The amount of light, carbon dioxide, water and temperature.
  8. 21. One of the principal chemical compounds that cells use to store energy, consists of adenine, ribose and 3 phosphate groups.
  9. 22. What is left after ATP releases energy by breaking a phosphate bond.
  10. 24. The fluid of the chloroplast surrounding the thylakoid membrane; involved in the synthesis of glucose from carbon dioxide and water.
  11. 27. A flattened membrane sac inside the chloroplast, used to convert light energy into chemical energy.
  12. 28. Sugars (primarily glucose) + oxygen.
Down
  1. 1. CO₂ + water.
  2. 3. Principal pigments in plants.
  3. 4. reactions of photosynthesis that use energy from light to produce ATP and NADPH.
  4. 5. 6CO₂ + 6H₂0 (light)→ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂. Carbon dioxide + water (light) →sugar + oxygen.
  5. 6. Oxygen, NADPH and ATP.
  6. 10. The ultimate source of energy for life.
  7. 11. 1) Light Dependent Reactions. 2) Light Independent Reactions or Calvin Cycle.
  8. 12. High-energy electrons form pigments in photosystems II absorb light. The electrons pass through this, a series of electron carrier proteins.
  9. 14. Autotrophs that transform light energy into glucose that can be used for food or building blocks.
  10. 15. The energy source used to turn ADP back into ATP.
  11. 17. Organisms capable of making their own food.
  12. 18. Organisms that consume food for energy and building blocks.
  13. 20. (Or light independent reactions) reactions of photosynthesis in which energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugars from CO2 from the atmosphere.
  14. 23. Light absorbing molecules that gather the sun's energy; found in plants.
  15. 25. Is a membrane protein through which excess hydrogen ions escape a thylakoid in a process that makes ATP.
  16. 26. Are clusters of proteins and chlorophyll in thylakoid membranes.
