Across
  1. 1. organism that creates its own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.
  2. 4. produce their own food and must eat other organisms to live.
  3. 5. organisms, NADPH is produced by ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase in the last step of the electron chain of the light reactions of photosynthesis.
  4. 7. Reactions/ a set of reactions in photosynthesis that do not require light; energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugar.
  5. 10. a stack of thylakoids.
  6. 12. complete round or series of occurrences that repeats or is repeated.
  7. 15. Cycle/ light-independent reactions of photosynthesis in which energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugar.
  8. 16. a process used by plants and other organisms to convert the light energy captured from the sun into chemical energy that can be used to fuel the organism's activities.

  1. 1. triphosphate.
  2. 2. fluid in between grana.
  3. 3. found in plant cells and other eukaryotic organisms that conduct photosynthesis and other chemical reactions.
  4. 6. Reactions/ a set of reactions in photosynthesis that uses energy from light to produce ATP and NADPH.
  5. 8. the site of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis.
  6. 9. cluster of chlorophyll and proteins found in thylakoids.
  7. 11. diphosphate.
  8. 13. Synthase/ a cluster of proteins that span the cell membrane and allow hydrogen ions to pass through it.
  9. 14. green pigment that absorbs light most strongly in the blue portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, followed by the red portion.
  10. 17. Transport Chain/ a series of electron carrier proteins that shuttle high-energy electrons during ATP-generating reactions.
