Photosynthesis

5. The process of using water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen.
6. Usually refers to xanthophyll and carotene.
7. Organisms that go through photosynthesis. examples: plants, some protists (like algae or euglena), and some bacteria.
9. Occur inside the thylakoid.
12. Occurs in the stroma (just outside of the thylakoid)
13. A jelly-like fluid inside surrounding the thylakoids where "The Calvin Cycle" occurs (mostly in Dark)

1. Colors that absorb light. Produces energy from the sunlight it absorbs. EX. chlorophyll a
2. Organelle where photosynthesis occurs.
3. Stack of thylakoids
4. The colors of light that the human eye can see.
7. Absorb sunlight, but do not produce energy directly. Ex. chlorophyll B, xanthophyll and carotene.
8. One billionth of a meter (1/1,000,000,000), used to measure the wavelength of light.
10. Membranes inside where the "light-reactions" occur with the Electron Transport Chain.
11. Microscopic holes in the underside of leaves. Allows oxygen to escape, and carbon dioxide to enter. Surrounded by guard cells, which open and close the stomata.
