Front

What are the inputs of Photosynthesis?

Back

Sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water

Front

Glucose is the basic unit of which macromolecule?

Back

Carbohydrates

Front

What is the role of Chlorophyll in plants?

Back

Chlorophyll is a pigment crucial for photosynthesis in plants.

Front

What occurs during the Light-dependent phase of photosynthesis?

Back

The light-dependent phase converts light energy into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH, releasing oxygen as a byproduct.

Front

What is the primary function of photosynthesis?

Back

To convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.

Front

What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?

Back

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Front

What is the significance of ATP in photosynthesis?

Back

ATP provides the energy needed for various biochemical reactions during the light-independent phase.

Front

What is the role of NADPH in photosynthesis?

Back

NADPH acts as a reducing agent, providing electrons for the conversion of carbon dioxide into glucose.

Front

Where does the light-dependent phase of photosynthesis occur?

Back

In the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts.
