6. The pigment chlorophyll mostly absorbs
a. Red and Green b. Red and Blue
and
c. Blue and Green

7. What is Photosystem II?
a. The process in which a water molecule is split in order to provide the thylakoids with the hydrogen
necessary to power ATP production needed for the production of glucose
b. The process in which carbon is removed from CO2 and added to Rubisco in order to create G3P, make
glucose, and re-charge Rubisco
c. The process in which the hydrogen from glucose is removed and placed in the membrane of the
mitochondria to power ATP production needed for cell activities
8. What is the Calvin Cycle?
a. The process in which a water molecule is split in order to provide the thylakoids with the hydrogen
necessary to power ATP production needed for the production of glucose
b. The process in which carbon is removed from CO2 and added to Rubisco in order to create G3P, make
glucose, and re-charge Rubisco
c. The process in which the hydrogen from glucose is removed and placed in the membrane of the
mitochondria to power ATP production needed for cell activities
9.
What is the role of the sun in photosynthesis?
a. Sunlight is used to split a water molecule into pure hydrogen and pure oxygen
b. Sunlight is used to split a carbon dioxide molecule into pure carbon and pure oxygen
c. Sunlight is used to make a sugar molecule
d. Sunlight is used to re-make Rubisco
10. What is happening at A?
a. Hydrogen from split water molecules are moving through ATP Synthase in order to create ATP
b. Carbon from CO2 is being added to Rubisco in order to produce G3P, which will be made into glucose
c. Rubisco is being re-created in order to continue the Calvin Cycle without stopping
d. Hydrogen from glucose is being moved into the mitochondria in order to power ATP Synthase
11. What is happening at B?
a. Hydrogen from split water molecules are moving through ATP Synthase in order to create ATP
