- 1. makes the capture of light energy possible
- 4. State: the state of a physical system (as of an atomic nucleus or an atom) having the least energy of all the possible states
- 5. Small pores, usually on the undersides of leaves, that are the primary sites for gas exchange in plants
- 8. one that absorbs light with a wavelength of about 700 nanometers
- 10. C sugar produced from photosynthesis.
- 12. complex: light-harvesting systems (LHC) which are protein-pigment complexes in or on photosynthetic membranes.
- 15. allosteric effector of hemoglobin that regulates the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen and facilitates the release of oxygen to the tissues
- 16. inner area of a chloroplast where the light-independent reactions occur. The stroma is the water-based, fluid-filled area of the chloroplast.
