Across
- 5. is a type of sugar that is produced during photosynthesis and serves as a source of energy for plants.
- 6. In the context of photosynthesis, a complex refers to a group of molecules that work together to facilitate a specific process. For example, the photosynthetic complex is a group of pigments and proteins that absorb light energy and convert it into chemical energy.
- 7. in the context of photosynthesis, refers to the sequence of light-dependent reactions that occur in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, resulting in the production of ATP and NADPH.
- 8. are a group of simple, non-flowering plants that are capable of photosynthesis, such as seaweed and kelp.
- 9. The spongy layer is a type of tissue found in plant leaves, characterized by its sponge-like structure. It contains many air spaces that allow for gas exchange and help to increase the surface area for photosynthesis.
- 10. refers to the essential components or conditions required for the process to occur, such as light, water, carbon dioxide, and chlorophyll.
Down
- 1. In the context of photosynthesis, a layer refers to the arrangement of cells or tissues in a plant leaf that facilitates the process. For example, the palisade layer and spongy layer are two types of layers found in a leaf.
- 2. In photosynthesis, excess energy is the energy that is not used immediately by the plant and is stored in the form of glucose or other organic compounds.
- 3. Water vapor is the gaseous state of water that is released into the air through a process called transpiration, which occurs during photosynthesis.
- 4. in the context of photosynthesis, refers to the ability to do work, which is converted from light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.
- 8. The process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of glucose (a type of sugar).
