| Grana | green pigment (chlorophyll) |
| Stroma | Clear space |
| Chlorophyll | green pigment |
| On the Thylakoid membrane | Where is chlorophyll found? |
| 6CO2+12H20---------6O2+C6H12O6+6H20 OR 6CO2+6H20---------6O2+C6H12O6 | What is the equation for Photosynthesis? |
| ATP | What molecule is a usable energy for plants? |
| C6H12O6+6O2--------6CO2+36atp+6H2O | What is the equation for cellular resperation? |
| day | When is the only time photosynthesis can occur? |
| Light Dependent Reaction, Light Independent Reaction (Calvin Cycle) | What are the 2 different "cycles" that occur during photosynthesis? |
| Photolysis | What is the action that breaks up H20 into H+,e-,O2? |
| LEO the lion says GER | What is the acronym for Oxidation and Reduction? |
| Lose Electron Oxidation | What does the LEO stand for? |
| Gain Electron Reduction | What does the GER stand for? |
| Red, Blue, Violet | What color light do plants absorb the most? |
| higher | Do shorter wavelengths have higher or lower energy? |
| lower | Do longer wavelenghts have higher or lower energy? |
| diffusion | Movement of substances (uncharged small substances) from high to low concentration |
| osmosis | movement of water from a higher concentrated area to a lower concentrated area |
| facilitated diffusion | Movemvent of substances from high concentration to low concentration through a protein channel (example: glucose) |
| concentration gradient | difference between areas that have high contentration to low concentration |
| hypertonic solution | high solute, low solvent,water moves out of the cell, cell shrinks |
| hypotonic solution | low solute, high solvent, water moves into the cell, cell gets bigger |
| isotonic solution | equal concentration of solute and solvent, water moves out of the cell and into the cell at equal rates, Cell stays the same size. |
| Passive Transport | 1) Movement of substances from high to low concentration (along the concentration gradient) 2)No energy required EXAMPLES: a)diffusion b)osmosis c)facilitated diffusion |
| Active Transport | 1)Movement of substances from low to high concentration (against the concentration gradient) 2)Energy required EXAMPLES: a)active transport with a protein carrier b)endocytosis c)exocytosis |
| Endocytosis | substances are moved INto the cell |
| Exocytosis | substances are pushed OUT of the cell (example: contractile vacuoles will push water out) |
| pinocytosis, phagocytosis | What are the two types of endocytosis? |
| pinocytosis | the pinching in of the cell membrane "cell-drinking" |
| phagocytosis | the engulfing of substances by the cell membrane "cell-eating" |
