Photosynthesis
This is a process of converting solar energy into chemical energy.(glucose)
Plants are called producers or autotrophs.
3
Photosynthesis
An autotroph has a special organelle that allows this process to occur. It is called the chloroplast. These organelles are located in the leaves. Inside the chloroplast are certain structures that contain Chlorophyll . The stacks of coin shaped discs are called Grana. Each individual disc are called Thylakoids, which contain chlorophyll.

2 Stages in Photosynthesis
Light Dependent (light reactions)
Light Independent (Calvin Cycle)
6
Multiple Choice
What is the organelle responsible for photosynthesis?
Mitochondria
Chloroplast
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
7
Multiple Select
Where is chlorophyll located?
Inside the stroma
Inside the thylakoids
Inside the mitochondria
Inside the nucleus
8
Light Dependent
Water (H2O) enters the thylakoids
Solar energy is absorbed by the chlorophyll (pigment that makes the plant green) in the thylakoids
The water molecule is split into 2 Hydrogens and Oxygen
Oxygen is released as a byproduct (waste)
ATP is created in this stage
A hydrogen is picked up by NADP+ to make energy.
9
Multiple Choice
What absorbs the light energy in the light dependent stage?
chloroplast
stroma
chlorophyll
ATP

12
Light Independent
Also known as the Calvin Cycle.
This cycle occurs anytime if the day, can also be called the dark reactions.
This happens in the Stroma (jelly like free space)
ATP and NADPH are used in the calvin cycle along with CO2.
Glucose is the main product made in the calvin cycle.
ATP turns into ADP and NAPPH turns into NADP+ because the energy is used.
13
Multiple Select
The Calvin Cycle uses what things to make glucose:
ATP
NADPH
CO2
light
14
Multiple Choice
What is a main product of Photosynthesis?
Oxygen
Glucose
ATP
NADPH
15
Multiple Choice
The plant uses what as reactants to make food for itself?
CO2
Solar Energy
H2O
Oxygen
16
Multiple Choice
The Calvin Cycle needs CO2?
Yes
No
