  1. 3. The reaction that ocxur in the thylakoids, requiring light to produce ATP and NADPH
  2. 5. The primary source of energy driving photosynthesis.
  3. 6. A molecule on which an enzyme acts to catalyze a reaction.
  4. 7. The first phase of the Calvin Cycle where carbon dioxide is incorporated into an organic molecule
  5. 8. The splitting of water molecules during photosynthesis, releasing oxygen and protons
  6. 10. A process of ATP production in mitochondria that uses energy derived from electron transport and oxygen.
  7. 11. The membrane-bound structures inside the chloroplast where the light-dependent reactions occur.
  8. 13. The process by which thr plants convert light energy into chemical energy
  9. 14. The reaction that occur in the stroma, independent of light, using ATP and NADPH to synthesize glucose
  10. 15. The process that generates ATP by the flow of protons across the thylakoid membrane.
Down
  1. 1. The third phase of the Calvin Cycle where RuBP is regenerated to continue the cycle.
  2. 2. The cycle in the light-independent reactions where carbon dioxide is fixed and glucose is synthesized.
  3. 4. The energy-carrying molecule used as a currency in cells.
  4. 9. The second phase of the Calvin Cycle where 3-PGA is reduced to G3P using ATP and NADPH.
  5. 12. The pigment-protein complexes involved in capturing light energy during thr light-dependent reaction
