|---|---|
|
Chloroplasts
|
organelles in plants and algae that can obsorb light.
|
|
chlorophyll
|
green color, light-absorbing pigment
|
|
stomata
|
Tiny pores within the chloroplasts
|
|
stroma
|
thick fluid within the chloroplasts
|
|
two stages of Photosynthesis
|
1) light reaction
2) calvin cycle ( independant light cycle)
|
|
Phase one of Photosynthesis
|
1) ligth reactions, Cholorphyll in the thyakoid membranes absorbs solar energy, whick is then converted to the chemical energy of ATP and NADPH
|
|
ATP
|
is the molecule that drives most cellular work. created during the light reaction(phase one).
|
|
NADPH
|
an electron carrier. created during the light reaction (phase one) of photsynthesis.
