Quiz Matching

Question 1

Photosynthesis:

Answer 1

the conversion of light energy into chemical energy stored in organic compounds

Question 2

Thylakoids

Answer 2

a flattened, membranous sac inside a chloroplast; contains most of the components involved in the light reactions of photosynthesis

Question 3

Autotrophs:

Answer 3

an organism that uses energy to synthesize organic molecules from inorganic substances like sunlight

Question 4

Light Reaction:

Answer 4

the initial reactions in photosynthesis, including the absorption of light by photosystems I and II, the passage of electrons along the electron transport chains, the production of NADPH and 02 and the synthesis of ATP through chemiosmosis

Question 5

Cellular respiration:

Answer 5

the process in which cells make ATP by breaking down organic compounds

Question 6

Chloroplasts:

Answer 6

a plastid containing chlorophyll; also where photosynthesis occurs

Question 7

Chemiosmosis:

Answer 7

Movement of protons down the concentration gradient and across a membrane is done along with the synthesis of ATP in the chloroplast and mitochondria.

Question 8

Chloroplasts:

Answer 8

plastid (sack) containing chlorophyll, also where photosynthesis occurs

Question 9

Chemiosmosis:

Answer 9

Movement of protons down the concentration gradient and across a membrane is done along with the synthesis of ATP in the chloroplast and mitochondria.

Question 10

Calvin Cycle:

Answer 10

a biochemical pathway of photosynthesis in which CO2 is converted into carbohydrate

Question 11

Stroma

Answer 11

in plants, the liquid that surrounds the thylakoids in a chloroplast

Question 12

Stomata

Answer 12

(singular stroma), small opening on the bottom of a leaf

Question 13

Heterotrophs

Answer 13

: an organism that obtains organic food molecules by eating other organisms or their by-products

Question 13

Chlorophyll:

Answer 13

a class of light-absorbing pigments used in photosynthesis (pigments that absorb light during photosynthesis)
