photosynthesis

3. a scientific discipline spanning the fields of chemistry and biology
8. any of the membranous disks of lamellae within plant chloroplasts that are composed of protein and lipid and are the sites of the photochemical reactions of photosynthesis.
9. substances produced by living organisms that have a color
10. functional units for photosynthesis, defined by a particular pigment organization and association patterns, whose work is the absorption and transfer of light energy, which implies transfer of electrons
11. important “energy molecule” found in all life forms
13. responsible for converting light energy into chemical energy in the Calvin cycle.
15. substance made from two or more different elements that have been chemically joined
16. the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy
17. any member of the most important class of pigments involved in photosynthesis
18. A colorless, odorless gas

1. a series of biochemical reactions in photosynthesis not requiring light to proceed
2. A series of chemical reactions that occurs as part of the dark reactions of photosynthesis
4. The cells and tissues that support and give structure to organs, glands, or other tissues in the body
5. a coenzyme that functions as a universal electron carrier, accepting electrons and hydrogen atoms to form NADPH, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate.
6. he enzyme that makes ATP molecules
7. a cluster of proteins that transfer electrons through a membrane to create a gradient of protons
12. an oxide containing two atoms of oxygen, each of which is bonded directly to an atom of a second element
14. A rearrangement of the atoms or molecules of two or more substances that come into contact with each other, resulting in the formation of one or more new substances
