Do you remember when we talked about that 50+ year old terrarium? In the space below, give an explanation as to why the ivy plants inside of the glass jar were able to survive for so long.
Use arrows to indicate the following on this picture: radiant energy, carbon dioxide, oxygen gas, water, and minerals (phosphorus and nitrogen). Draw and label six of the eight possible arrows....two points extra credit if you can get all eight!
Which part of the leaf is responsible for gasses entering or leaving the leaf?
Of the selection given, select all that are correct parts of a leaf.
All of the following is a true statement about pigments EXCEPT for...
Photosynthesis takes place in the membranes of small sacs called
Using the absorption spectrum below of chlorophyll a, identify which colors of light are absorbed?
Using the absorption spectrum below of chlorophyll a, identify which colors of light are reflected
Using the following absorption spectrum for carotenoids, choose the two colors that are most absorbed by the carotenoid pigment.
The pigment molecules (Chlorophyll) responsible for photosynthesis are located in the
Use the picture of the chloroplast to label the stroma, inner/outer membrane, and a thylakoid. Indicate which places in the chloroplast the light independent reaction and the light dependent reaction takes place.
Which of the following is an example of chemical energy?
Which of the following is an example of radiant energy?
Which area of the chloroplast does the light-independent reaction happen?
What chemical energy molecule is the main product of photosynthesis?
What do we call changing radiant energy into chemical energy during photosynthesis?
Which of the following are products of photosynthesis?
Which of the following are reactants of photosynthesis?
Type out the chemical equation for photosynthesis if two glucose molecules are being formed. Use the following word bank to draw out the balanaced equation.
- C6H12O6 (glucose)
- CO2 (carbon dioxide)
- Radiant Energy
- H2O (water)
- O2 (oxygen gas)
Using different colored arrows, draw the visible light spectrum as it is absorbed and reflected during photosynthesis in a leaf of the plant. (I.E. Draw the arrow for what wavelenths are being absorbed/reflected by the pigments of the plant)
