Match the terms below with the correct description
Chlorophyll
Chloroplast
Electromagnetic spectrum
Electron transport chain
Grana
Light-dependant reactions
Light-independent reactions
Photon
Photosynthesis
Photosystem
Stroma
Thylakoid
a.__________________ packet of solar energy
b.__________________energy-capturing portion of photosynthesis that takes place in thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts and cannot proceed without solar energy, it produces ATP and NADPH
c.__________________green pigment that absorbs solar energy and is important in photosynthesis
d.__________________ large, central compartment in a chloroplast that is fluid filled and contains enzymes used in photosynthesis
e.__________________ membrane-bounded organelle with chlorophyll – containing membranous thylakoids; where photosynthesis takes place
f.__________________Photosynthetic unit where solar energy is absorbed and high-energy electrons are generated; contains a pigment complex and an electron acceptor
g.__________________Passage of electrons along a series of carrier molecules form a higher to a lower energy level; the energy released is used for the synthesis of ATP.
h.__________________Process usually occurring within chloroplasts whereby chlorophyll traps solar energy and carbon dioxide is reduced to a carbohydrate.
i.__________________ Series of photosynthetic reactions in which carbon dioxide is fixed and reduced in the chloroplast.
j.__________________Synthesis portion of photosynthesis that takes place in the stroma of chloroplasts and does not directly require solar energy; it uses the products of the light dependant reactions to reduce carbon dioxide to a carbohydrate
