  1. 4. Refers to the fluid areas surrounding the grana within the chloroplast (Site of LIR)
  2. 6. The synthesis of organic compounds by bacteria or other living organisms using energy derived from reactions involving inorganic chemicals
  3. 8. A process in which plants and some other organisms use light energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and high energy carbohydrates such as glucose and oxygen.
  4. 10. Principal green pigment of plants and some other organisms; absorbs light energy needed for photosynthesis

  1. 1. Process in plants which light energy is absorbed and converted into ATP and NADPH(energy)
  2. 2. (Adenosine TriPhosphate) A high energy molecule necessary for cellular reprocesses; 3 phosphates
  3. 3. (Light Independent Reactions) The chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and other compounds into glucose.
  4. 5. Is a series of reactions in a membrane that transfers electrons from one chemical to another across the thylakoid membrane. (Embedded in mitochondrial membrane)
  5. 7. (Adenosine DiPhosphate) A low energy molecule; 2 phosphates
  6. 9. Photosynthetic membranes found in chloroplasts that contain the components for photosynthesis.
