New cards

Photosynthesis

The process by which plants convert light energy, water, and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen.

2
New cards

Chloroplasts

Organelles in plant cells where photosynthesis occurs, primarily in the leaves.

3
New cards

Light-dependent reactions

The stage of photosynthesis that occurs in the thylakoid membranes and produces ATP and NADPH.

4
New cards

Calvin cycle (light-independent reactions)

The stage of photosynthesis that occurs in the stroma and uses ATP and NADPH to fix CO2 into sugars.

5
New cards

Chlorophyll

The green pigment in plants that absorbs mostly blue and red light.

6
New cards

Factors affecting photosynthesis

Light intensity, CO2 concentration, and temperature influence the rate of photosynthesis.
