Bio: Photosynthesis

Fill in the blanks below In photosynthesis, light energy from the sun is converted into chemical energy What types of organisms perform photosynthesis? Select ALL that apply. Plants Bacteria Animals Protists Fungi Fill in the blank below Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast organelle Which pigment below is found in the thylakoid of plants and is responsible for their green color? Carotenoid Anthocyanin Chlorophyll Fill in the blank below Pigments are structures that absorb wavelengths of color. Whichever wavelengths are not absorbed are reflected back. Receptors in our eyes absorb these reflected wavelengths and our brain interprets them as the objects color! Fill in the blanks below for the photosynthesis equation Light + Carbon Dioxide + Water --> Glucose + Oxygen What happens to the glucose produced in photosynthesis? Select ALL that apply The glucose is modified stored in the plant for later use The glucose is used directly as energy by the chloroplast The glucose is moved to the mitochondria where it will be converted into energy The glucose is released as a waste product Sort the reactants and products of photosynthesis into the "needs" and "releases" categories Needs Water Light Carbon Dioxide Releases Oxygen Glucose Which is the correct formula for glucose? C6H24O12 C6H12O6 C6H6O6 Fill in the diagram of photosynthesis Water Sunlight Thylakoid ATP Calvin Cycle ADP Carbon Dioxide Oxygen Glucose The food we eat is considered which type of energy? Electrical Thermal Kinetic Chemical How do the carbon dioxide oxygen molecules enter exit a plant? Through the stomata Through the cholorplast Through the mesophyll Through the chlorophyll Organize the following items as photosynthesis reactants or products Reactants Water Carbon Dioxide Light Products Glucose Oxygen
