Photosynthesis Review

More efficient carbon fixation

An advantage held by C₄ plants.

Stomata

Carbon dioxide enters the plant through the _____.

Incorrect

More NADPH is used than ATP during the dark reactions.

Sugar

Not a product of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis.

Chemiosmosis

Occurs in both cellular respiration and photosynthesis.

Cyclic photophosphorylation

Photosynthetic process that has ATP as its sole product. There is no oxygen and no NADPH produced from these reactions. `

Light-dependent reactions

Photosynthetic state that produces oxygen.

CAM photosynthesis

Plants use this process so that they can open their stomata at night and close their stomata during the day to avoid water loss during the hot days, without depleting the plant's CO₂ reserves.

CO₂

Source of carbon in sugar produced during photosynthesis.

Thylakoid membrane

The light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis occur in the ____.

C₄ Photosynthesis

The photosynthetic process performed by some plants in an effort to survive the hot and dry conditions of climates such as the desert.

Transpiration

The process by which plants lose water via evaporation through their leaves.

H₂0

The source of the oxygen released during photosynthesis.

Calvin cycle

Uses NADPH, ATP, and CO₂ as the inputs to it reactions.
