Paragraph One:
_____________________ can be divided into two parts: The Light Reactions and the _____________________(light
independent reactions). The light reaction begins with the absorption of light energy by __________________ which is
assisted by another pigment ________________ found in the chloroplasts of plant cells. The _____________ in these
pigments get excited and move through an _______________________________ where the final electron acceptor
produces ___________. Also occurring in the ______________ membrane is __________________ and a process where
water molecules are split to produce ______________, electrons, and _______________. The protons collect inside the
thylakoid and exit to the _____________ through carrier proteins, an enzyme called __________________, which makes
___________. The electrons are sent to the _____________________ and become available to replace those that were
used to make NADPH. The O2 is released by the plant through structures under the leaf called _______________.

Paragraph Two:
In the ________________ of chloroplasts, the NADPH and _____________ from the light reactions become reactants in
___________________. Carbon dioxide from the __________________ enters the leaf through tiny openings called
_________________. In this process called ________________, CO2 joins with various carbon compounds that receive
________________ from __________ and a ______________ from _______________. After several turns of the cycle
_______________ molecules are formed. The __________ and NADP+ are recycled and sent back to the light reactions to
be used again. The Calvin Cycle can produce not just glucose, but also ______________, _____________, and other
________________________. Excess starches are stored by the plants in its ___________, ____________, ___________,
and ______________. __________________ may come along and eat the plant, thus indirectly gaining energy from the
____________.
Part Three: Write the simple chemical equation for photosynthesis:
PHOTOSYNTHESIS can be divided into two parts: The Light Reactions and the CALVIN CYCLE (light independent reactions).
The light reaction begins with the absorption of light energy by CHLOROPHYLL A which is assisted by another pigment
CHLOROPHYLL B found in the chloroplasts of plant cells. The ELECTRONS in these pigments get excited and move through
an ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN where the final electron acceptor produces NADPH. Also occurring in the THYLAKOID
membrane is CHEMIOSMOSIS and a process where water molecules are split to produce PROTONS, electrons, and OXYGEN
GAS. The protons collect inside the thylakoid and exit to the STROMA through carrier proteins, an enzyme called ATP
SYNTHASE, which makes ATP. The electrons are sent to the PHOTOSYSTEMSand become available to replace those that
were used to make NADPH. The O2 is released by the plant through structures under the leaf called STOMA.
In the STROMA of chloroplasts, the NADPHand ATP from the light reactions become reactants in the CALVIN CYCLE. Carbon
dioxide from the ATMOSPHERE enters the leaf through tiny openings called STOMATA. In this process called CARBON
FIXATION, CO2 joins with various carbon compounds that receive PHOSPHATES from ATP and a PROTON from NADPH. After
several turns of the cycle ORGANIC molecules are formed. The ADP and NADP+ are recycled and sent back to the light
reactions to be used again. The Calvin Cycle can produce not just glucose, but also AMINO ACIDS, LIPIDS, and other
CARBOHYDRATES. Excess starches are stored by the plants in its ROOTS, FRUITS, STEMS, and LEAVES. HETEROTROPHS may
come along and eat the plant, thus indirectly gaining energy from the SUN.
