Question 8
8.
Using the photosynthesis equation and the diagram above in #14, explain the roles of the light independent and light dependent reactions of photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis occurs in-
the mitochondria.
the chloroplast.
the ribosome.
the nucleus.
Identify the reactants of photosynthesis.
Glucose (C6H12O6)
Oxygen (O2)
ATP
CO2
H2O
Identify the products of photosynthesis.
Glucose (C6H12O6)
ATP
H2O
CO2
Oxygen (O2)
Identify the balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis.
6CO2 + 6H2O + light --> C6H12O6 + 6O2
C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + light
CO2 + H2O + light --> C6H12O6 + O2
The transformation of energy in photosynthesis is-
light to chemical energy.
ATP to light energy.
chemical to light energy.
Photosynthesis is a 2-step process. Which reaction comes first? Where does it occur and what does it produce?
1) Light Independent Reaction: occurs in the stroma and produces ATP and O2
2) Light Dependent Reaction: occurs in the thylakoid produces glucose
1) Light Dependent Reaction: occurs in the thylakoid and produces ATP and O2
2) Light Independent Reaction: occurs in the stroma produces glucose
1) Light Dependent Reaction: occurs in the thylakoid produces glucose and O2
2) Light Independent Reaction: occurs in the stroma produces ATP
