Question

Write the letter of the correct answer on the line at the left. What are the reactants of the photosynthesis reaction? chlorophyll and light carbon dioxide and water carbohydrates and oxygen high-energy electrons and air What are the products of the light-dependent reactions? chloroplasts and light proteins and lipids oxygen and ATP water and sugars Where do the light-independent reactions occur? Stroma thylakoids chlorophyll mitochondria Complete the illustration by writing the reactants and products of the light-dependent and light-independent reactions. Also, fill in the energy source that excites the electrons. Solar power uses cells or panels to absorb the sun's energy. That energy is then used to create electricity. How does this compare to the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis? ____

Explanation / Answer

Answer 11. Carbon dioxide and water

Answer 12. Oxygen and ATP

Answer 13. Stroma

Answer 14.

Light-dependent Reaction

Light-independent Reaction

1. Products are ATP, NADPH, and oxygen

1. The products are ADP, NADP+ and glucose

2. Reactants are light, water and NADP+

2. Reactants are ATP, NADPH, and CO2

3. This reaction occurs in thylakoid membranes

3. This reaction occurs in stroma

Answer 15

Solar power uses cells or panels to absorb the sun’s energy. The energy absorbed by the solar panels is used to generate electricity. In the same way, in photosynthesis the leaves absorb sunlight and carbon dioxide to make glucose and oxygen as source of energy.
