Front

What describes the conversion of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) to ATP?

Back

an input of energy to attach a third phosphate group

Front

Jason is listing the changes to matter and energy that occur during the process of photosynthesis. Which of these examples should he include in his list? nuclear changes that convert hydrogen and oxygen into carbon, chemical changes that convert carbohydrates into smaller molecules., changes that convert light energy into chemical energy stored in carbohydrates, changes that convert chemical energy into heat and light

Back

changes that convert light energy into chemical energy stored in carbohydrates

Front

Which property of chlorophyll is most appropriate to cite when explaining its classification as a plant pigment and its usefulness in photosynthesis? Options: chlorophyll’s ability to absorb light, chlorophyll’s green color, chlorophyll’s presence in chloroplasts, chlorophyll’s reactivity with oxygen.

Back

chlorophyll’s ability to absorb light

Front

What change is necessary to make Jane's description of chloroplasts accurate: “A chloroplast contains thylakoid stacks, called stroma, that are surrounded by fluid-filled grana.”?

Back

Exchange the positions of “stroma” and “grana.”

Front

Joy is describing the role of electron carriers, such as NADP⁺, in photosynthesis. Which property of NADP⁺ should Joy cite?

Back

its ability to accept and release high-energy electrons and a hydrogen ion

Front

What best describes the role of light in the overall process of photosynthesis?

Back

Light provides the energy for assembling small molecules into sugars.

Front

By analyzing this equation, which property of photosynthesis can be identified? Options: the chemical changes that occur during the light-independent reactions, the chemical changes that occur during the light-dependent reactions, the source of carbon atoms in the carbohydrate product, the identities and roles of electron carriers

Back

the source of carbon atoms in the carbohydrate product

Front

During photosynthesis, what best describes the role of the compound with the chemical formula C₆H₁₂O₆?

Back

a product that is useful because of its high-energy chemical bonds

Front

What best describes the roles of photosystem I and photosystem II in the process of photosynthesis?

Back

They absorb sunlight and transfer the energy to electrons.

Front

Which is the role of the electron transport chain in the process of photosynthesis? Options: adding energy to the electrons that enter photosystem I, carrying electrons from photosystem II, to photosystem I, to NADP⁺, removing electrons from the chloroplast, cycling electrons between photosystem I and photosystem II

Back

carrying electrons from photosystem II, to photosystem I, to NADP⁺
