Photosynthesis
T/F
 No life would exist if photosynthesis didn’t exist.
 The cuticle is located inside the chloroplast protecting the chlorophyll.
 Light reactions can only occur in sunlight while dark reactions can take place in light or
dark locations.
 Oxygen is obtained from the oxygen taken in through plant pores.
Fill in the Blank
The cuticle is waxy to prevent _______________ (i.e. water loss).
Light reactions convert ____________ to __________ and __________.
Dark reactions produce __________________.
Most photosynthesis takes place in the _____________________.
__________ is used to split___________ resulting with a product of___________.
Most____________ of a plant reside in the __________ section of the leaf.
The __________ are where gas is exchanged in or out of a leaf.
The__________ is the inner space structure of a chloroplast.
_________ is the most abundant protein on the earth.
Match the following to the correct reaction.
A. light Dependent reaction
B. Light Independent (dark) reaction
_____1. CO2 is captured and converted into sugars
_____2. light energy is converted into the energy of ATP & carried by NADPH
_____3. Occurs in the grana of the chloroplast
_____4. Uses chemical energy to make glucose
_____5. Uses chlorophyll, Carotenoids, and phycocyanins to trap light energy
_____6. Energy obtained from ATP and NADPH
_____8. Produces CO2 gas
_____9. Thylakoid membranes
_____10. Photosystems I and II
_____11. Carbon fixation occurs
_____12. Involves the electron transport system
_____13. Occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast
_____14. Water is split into O2, H+, and e1. What are the two parts of photosynthesis? What is the input and output of each part?
2. Describe the cyclic electron flow of electron energy, of a light reaction.
3. Draw a chloroplast. Label the thylakoids and granum. How many membranes are present
in chloroplasts?
1. Give a brief overview of the conclusion from these classic experiments about DNA:
a. Griffith (1. S cells, R cells, heat killed S cells, Living type R cells + heat killed type S)
b. Avery, Macleod, McCarty (R bacteria, DNase, RNase, protease)
