Photosynthesis

What part of the plant cell performs photosynthesis?

• The Mitochondrion

• The Nucleus

• The Chloroplast

• The Cell Wall

Why are green leaves green?

• Chlorophyll reflects green light
• Chlorophyll absorbs green light
• Chlorophyll absorbs blue and green light

Where do the light reactions happen?

• mitochondria membrane
• thylakoid membrane
• stroma
• central vacuole

What is the main purpose of the light dependent reactions?

• To provide the energy for the calvin cycle
• To capture energy and make sugar
• To reflect green light
• To make sugars

What happens to the O₂ created in the light phase?

• Is transferred to the Calvin Cycle
• Donates its electrons to the Chlorophyll molecules
• Provides a carbon to form the unstable 6-carbon molecule
• Diffuses out through the stoma
