Across
- 4. organellle that specializes in photosynthesis in plants and many protists
- 5. the most common photosynthetic pigment in plants
- 6. is extracting carbon atoms from an inorganic source and incorporating them into organic molecule called
- 9. light driven reaction that attaches phosphate to a molecule
- 11. organism that makes its own food using carbon from inorganic molecules,and energy from light or chemical reactions
- 12. fixes carbon by attaching CO2 to five carbon RuBP
- 13. distance between the crests of two succesives waves of light
Down
- 1. organic molecule that selectively absorbs light of specific wavelenghts
- 2. Contains choroplast's DNA,some ribosomes, and the thylakoid membrane
