Photosynthesis

What is the overall goal of a plant conducting photosynthesis?

• To create oxygen

• To create energy molecules for heterotrophs

• To create sugar for it's own selfish purposes

• To absorb sunlight and reduce global temperatures

What begins the process of photosynthesis?

• carbon dioxide is diffused into the stroma to, in a series of reactions, create sugar

• Water is split apart to release electrons and create a hydrogen concentration gradient

• ATP and NADPH energize reactants to produce oxygen and glucose

• Light energy is absorbed by pigments to energize the electron transport chain

What is water's role in photosynthesis?

• To create a liquid solute for oxygen to be made.

• To provide electrons and hydrogen, to energize ATP and NADPH.

• To help plants with gas exchange, such as diffusion of CO_2.

• To hydrate plants and removes harmful waste products.

What do pigments do?

• Absorb specific wavelengths(color) of visible light for energy.

• Absorb CO₂ in the Stroma to create sugar.

• Transports e^- in the electron transport chain.

• Transports energy between plant cells.
