Photosynthesis Jordyn

1. This is where they open their stomata during the day (more CO2 available during daytime), and go through Calvin Cycle.
4. colors that absorb light. Produces energy from the sunlight it absorbs.EX.chlorophyll a
6. membranes inside where "the light-reactions" occur with the Electron Transport Chain.
7. microscopic holes in the underside of leaves. allows oxygen to escape, and carbon dioxide to enter.
10. absorb sunlight, but do not produce energy directly.
13. usually refers to xanthophyll and carotene
14. a jelly-like fluid inside surrounding the thylakoids where "The Calvin Cycle" occurs (mostly in Dark).
16. one billionth of a meter (1/1,000,000,000), used to measure the wavelength of light
17. Spectrum of pigments...

2. organisms that go through photosynthesis.examples:plants, some protists (like algae or euglena), and some bacteria
3. plants that open their stomata during the night
5. organelle where photosynthesis occurs.
8. in order to conserve H2O, they don't go through Calvin Cycle.
9. occurs in the stroma (just outside of the thylakoid)
11. cells open and close the stomata.
12. the colors of light that the human eye can see.
15. the process of using water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen.
