Plant Biology

3. The reaction that occur in the stroma.
4. The process by which light splits water into oxygen and H+.
5. The process by which autotrophs use sunlight to make glucose.
7. The site of the light dependent reactions.
9. Plants can take in either ammonium(NH4+) or nitrates (NO3-) and make amino acids or nucleic acids.
13. The space in the chloroplast where the light independent reactions occur
14. essential element of life. It enters producers through the soil and is cycled locally through producers
15. (H2O) Nearly 60% of the precipitation that falls on land is either evaporated or transpired by plants

1. The organelle where photosynthesis occurs
2. Turning nitrogen to a useable form
6. Process by which heterotrophs convert glucose and oxygen to energy
8. A stack of thylakoids
10. The light absorbing pigment
11. (C) is tied up in sedimentary rocks; but the portion that circulates is what sustains life. Plants are responsible for the removal of carbon from the atmosphere.
12. The reactions that occur in the thylakoid.
