Amoeba Sisters - Photosynthesis and the Teeny Tiny Pigment Pancakes Watch the video, complete the questions that follow. 1. What are the 3 ingredients (reactants) required for photosynthesis?a. The gas carbon dioxide b. The liquid water c. The energy source sunlight2. What does it make (products)? sugar3. What organisms can do photosynthesis? a. Some types of single-celled eukaryotes called protists can b. Some types of prokaryotes (bacteria) can c. Of course, plantscan4. Photosynthesis also produces the gas oxygen5. Plants and animals need what kind of sugar (specifically)?glucose6. What do plants and animals use glucose to make? ATP7. In what process? cellular respiration8. What is ATP used for? cellular activities What is the photosynthesis formula? Using the video, fill in the correct formula. (Word Bank: products, reactants, carbon dioxide, light energy, oxygen, sugar, water) carbon dioxide water light energy oxygen sugar reactants products Continue watching the video above, and complete this section of questions. 9. What is the chemical (balanced) formula for photosynthesis? 6 CO2+ 6 H20 + light -> 6 O2+ C6H12O610. Sometimes lightis written on top the arrow to indicate it's in the presence of light.11. Plants have light capturing molecules called pigments.12. Visible light has different wavelengths which show as different colors13. What is the major pigment that plants use for photosynthesis? chlorophyll14. Chlorophyll is an expert at absorbing what 2 colors of light? red and blue15. Chlorophyll reflects what color of light? green16. Why do plants appear green? because the reflect green light17. Chlorophyll is found in what organelle? chloroplast18. What are the two reactions in photosynthesis? a. the part the requires light the light-dependent reaction b. the part the does not need direct light the light-independent reaction19. Where does the light dependent reaction happen? in the thylakoids light-dependent reaction Fill in the diagram about what happens in the light-dependent reaction (Word Bank: ATP, energy, light, NADPH, oxygen, water) light water energy ATP NADPH oxygen Continue watching the video above, and complete this section of questions. Where does the light independent reaction happen? in the stromaWhat does it mean when carbon is ‘fixed’? The inorganic carbon dioxide is changed to a more usable organic form.Ultimately turning the carbon dioxide into glucose. Light-independent reaction Fill in the diagram to show what happens in the light-independent reaction. (Word Bank: ATP. carbon dioxide, electrons, glucose, NADPH) glucose electrons NADPH ATP carbon dioxide
