Across
  1. 1. One of the products of photosynthesis
  2. 7. The waste product of photosynthesis.
  3. 9. A specialized cell type in a multicellular organism that is sensitive to light.
  4. 11. A flattened membraneous sac inside a chloroplast containing chlorophyll and the molecular complexes of the light reactions of photosynthesis.
  5. 12. The scientist who demonstrated that the site of photosynthesis is the chloroplast and proved only specific wavelengths can be used for photosynthesis.
  6. 13. A photosynthetic complex containing chlorophyll.
  7. 15. A stack of membrane bounded thylakoids in chloroplast where light energy is trapped by chlorophyll and converted to chemical energy during the light reactions of photosynthesis.
Down
  1. 2. One of the reactants needed for photosynthesis.
  2. 3. The dense fluid within the chloroplasts that surrounds the thylakoid membrane and is involved in the synthesis of organic molecules from carbon dioxide and water.
  3. 4. The part of photosynthesis that the is the light dependent reaction.
  4. 5. The part of photosynthesis that is the Light Independent reaction.
  5. 6. Microscopic pores surrounded by guard cells in the epidermis of the leaf. When these open, CO2 enters the leaf and H2O exits.
  6. 8. One of the reactants needed for photosynthesis.
  7. 10. A product of the Light Reactions.
  8. 14. Reactions in photosynthesis that require light energy that is captured by the chlorophyll to be converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH.
  9. 16. A product of the Light Reactions.
