Academic Photosynthesis Jeopardy Energy 100- An organism that uses the sun’s energy to make its own food is called a Autotroph 200- This type of organism cannot create its own food and gets its energy from consuming other organisms. Heterotroph 300- What is the energy currency of the cell? ATP 400- What is the name of the electron carrier that is charged during the light reactions of photosynthesis? NADPH 500- Where is the energy stored in an ATP molecule? In the bonds between the phosphate groups Absorbing Energy 100- What is the name of a chemical that absorbs or reflects light? Pigment 200- What is the main pigment in plants? Cholorophyll a 300- Where in a plant cell is the pigment found? Chloroplast 400- What color in the electromagnetic spectrum is absorbed the most by chlorophyll? Violet 500- What is an example of an accessory pigment found in plant cells? Chlorophyll b, carotenoids or anthocycanins Light Reactions 100- Where in the chloroplast do the light reactions take place? Grana 200- What are 2 of the raw materials that are needed for the light reactions to take place? Chlorophyll, light and water 300- What is the byproduct that is produced in the light reactions that is so important to us? O2 400- What are the 2 electron carriers that are converted into usable energy for the dark reactions? ADP & NADP+ 500- What are the 3 products of the light reactions? O2, ATP, NADPH Dark Reactions 100- What is another name for the dark reaction? Calvin cycle, Light Independent Reactions 200- Where in the chloroplast does the Calvin Cycle take place Stroma 300- What 2 products formed during the light reactions are needed in the dark reactions? NADPH and ATP 400- What does the plant do with the excess glucose that it produces? Stores it in the form of starch and cellulose 500- What are the products that form during the dark reactions? Glucose, ADP, NADP+ Grab Bag 100- What are the flat membranes where photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts called? Thylakoids 200- What are 2 factors that affect photosynthesis? Temp, CO2 concentration, light intensity or shortage of water 300- The part of the chloroplast where the Calvin cycle takes place and that surrounds the grana is called the Stroma 400- Jan Van Helmont was a scientist that theorized plants grew by… Absorbing water 500- This scientist discovered plants release oxygen by putting a mouse in a jar with a live plant.
