AP Season 4 Improvement

Front

What is the primary pigment used in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll a is the primary pigment used in photosynthesis, responsible for capturing light energy.

Front

What is the final output of the Citric Acid Cycle?

Back

The final output includes FADH2, ATP, and CO2, but not NADP.

Front

Do plants carry out both cellular respiration and photosynthesis?

Back

True, plants perform both processes to convert energy.

Front

Which photosystem is involved in producing ATP?

Back

Photosystem II is involved in producing ATP during photosynthesis.

Front

What is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain during photosynthesis?

Back

NADP+ is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain.

Front

Define photosynthesis.

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily in the blue and red wavelengths, and converts it into chemical energy.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

The two main stages are the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle).

Front

What is produced during the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis?

Back

The light-dependent reactions produce ATP, NADPH, and oxygen.

Front

What is the Calvin cycle?

Back

The Calvin cycle is the light-independent stage of photosynthesis where carbon dioxide is fixed into glucose.
