NGSS.HS-LS1-7

light independent reactions of photosynthesis in which energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugar

• Calvin cycle
• photosystem
• electron transport chain
• ATP synthase

What factor(s) do not affect photosythesis?

• Temperature
• Light
• Water/CO2
• none of the above

Plants that have adapted to extremely bright and dry conditions:

• C1 and C4
• C2 an CAM
• C1 and C2
• C4 and CAM

NGSS.HS-LS4-4

Pathway, which requires extra energy; enables photosynthesis to keep working under intense light and high temperatures by first forming a compound containing 4 carbons (corn, sugarcane, and sorghum)

• C1
• C3
• C4
• CAM

The major products of the light-dependent reactions are

• ATP and NADPH
• NADPH and water
• carbon dioxide and water
• ATP and sugars

In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is used to make sugar during 

• ATP formation
• the Calvin cycle
• the light-dependent reactions
• the electron transport chain

What is the function of NADPH and ATP in the Calvin cycle?

• They provide the energy required to build high-energy sugars
• They provide the energy to create needed oxygen
• They provide the energy required to release water
• They provide the energy required to expel CO2
