Q

Supported the findings of priestley, and added that this air (oxygen) could only be restoeed by plants if the sun was shinning

A

Jan Ingenhouz (1730-1799)

19
Q

Weighed both the air and the plant before and after phtosynthesis

A

Nicholas de Saussure (1767, 1845)

20
Q

In 1930s, of standford University was able to prove that light splits water, prducing oxygen

A

C.B. Van Niel (1897-1985)

21
Q

Plants Phtosynthesis: an overview

A

Heterotrophs

Autotrophs

22
Q

Other eating, cannot synthesize their own food and depend on autotrophs and other organisms for their substance

A

Heterotrophs (other eating)

23
Q

Self-feeding, Synthesize their own food

A

Autotrophs

24
Q

Autorophic organisms are of two main types

A

Photoautotrophs

Chemosutotrophs

25
Which include green plants and purole bacteria and can utilize light energy to synthesize organic molecules
Photoautotrophs
26
Which includes some bacteria that can synthesize organic substances from the inorganic substances in their environment and are not dependent on light energy
Chemoautotrophs
27
Involve the stable transfer of electrons netween atoms
Oxidation reduction or Redox reaction
28
An atom or molecules is said to be REDUCED when it GAINS one or more electrons
.
29
When it LOSES on or more electrons it is OXIDIZED
.
30
Are the mahir site of phtosynthesis in green plants
Leaves
31
Are abundant in the leafs mesophyll layer
Chloroplasts
32
The layer next to the outer surface layer of the cells
Epidermis
33
Is a form of electromagnetic (em) radiation which is a wave that has electric and magnetic components
Light
34
Light also has a particle like quality consisting of diescrete particles
Protons
35
It is the mahor photosynthetic pogment
Chlorophyll
36
The other phtosynthetic pigments
Accessory Pigments
37
Hundred of theses pigments are organize into light collecting units
Photosynstems
38
Energy carrier
adenosine Triphosphate (atp)
39
Is bonded to rubise to form a unit
adenosine
40
This process is termed Dephosphorylation
Dephosphrylation
41
It is catalyzed bu he enzyme
At Phase
42
After dephosphorylation, two phosphate groups and adenosine remain dormint the compund
Adenosine Diphosphate or ADP
43
The process is generally refered as?
Phosphorylation
