Across
  1. 4. The principal CO2 acceptor in plants
  2. 6. A process that wastes energy and steals carbon
  3. 7. A leaf cell type that forms a tightly packed layer surrounding the veins
  4. 8. The ionized form of malic acid
  5. 9. A series of chemical reactions that occurs as part of the dark reactions of photosynthesis, in which carbon is broken away from gaseous carbon dioxide and fixed as organic carbon in compounds that are ultimately used to make sugars and starch as food
  6. 10. The enzyme that takes a carbon atom from a CO2 molecule
Down
  1. 1. The standard pathway; named after the first stable compound produced after fixation of CO2 by RuBisCo
  2. 2. The pathway that allows the Stomata to open at night to allow CO2 to diffuse into the leaf to be combined with PEP and form malate
  3. 3. The pathway that has a mechanism to reduce photorespiration by increasing CO2 concentration at the site of carboxylation
  4. 5. The inner tissue of a leaf, containing many chloroplasts
