Amoeba Sisters: Photosynthesis and the Teeny Tiny Pigment Pancakes 1. Why do plants and animals (and any organism) need glucose?

It is used to create energy for the cell 2. How do plants get their glucose?

Photosynthesis 3. Identify the reactants and the products of photosynthesis.

Reactants are carbon dioxide and water The product is oxygen and sugar 4. Why is light written above the arrow in the balanced equation for photosynthesis?

Because light is required in photosynthesis

colors 5. Different wavelengths of light have different __________________________________. Chlorophyll 6. One pigment that plants use for photosynthesis is called _____________________________________. red blue green 7. Chlorophyll is an expert at absorbing ___________ and _____________ light, but not _______________ light. green reflects 8. Because chlorophyll doesn’t absorb much ______________________ light, it actually __________________ it. green Therefore, many plants appear ______________________ to our eyes. Chloroplast Cell 9. Chlorophyll is a pigment found in the _________________________ of ___________________ cells.

10. The two major reactions that occur in the chloroplast that together make up photosynthesis are called the Light Dependent Reaction and Light Independent Reaction. The Light Independent Reaction is also called the Calvin cycle _________________________________________ or Dark Reaction. Thylakoids 11. The light dependent reaction occurs in the part of the chloroplast knows as the _______________________. These are little compartments in chloroplast Chlorophyll that contain ____________________________. They tend to be nicely stacked and a collective granum stack is called a ____________________, which looks like stack of Green pancakes ______________________________________. 12. During the light dependent reaction, light is converted into Chemical energy __________________________________ in the ATP form of ___________ and NADPH ____________________.

oxygen split 13. Also, during the light dependent reaction, water is ___________________ and _______________________ is released as a product.

14. Light Independent Reaction happens inside stroma chloroplast in the _________________, which is a fluid ______________ outside of the thylakoid. 15. In the picture to the right, label the 2 main parts of the inside of the chloroplast.

16. During the light independent reaction, Carbon Dioxide must be fixed. This means that, with the additional major enzyme CO2 help of ___________________________________________________, inorganic __________ is changed to a more usable organic form _______________________________________________________________________. 17. What is the purpose of the ATP and NADPH produced by the light dependent reaction?

ATP supplies the energy NADOH supplies a dampener for the energy

18. What is produced as a result of the light independent reaction?

Glucose or ATP energy

19. In the picture to the right, circle the reactants used and products made during light dependent reaction. Then draw boxes around the reactants used and products made during the light independent reaction....
