| photosynthesis | 6 CO2 + 6 H20 -> C6H1206 + 6 CO2 |
| cholorophyll | most common pigment in plants and its green |
| stomata | Opening on the underside of the leave through which oxygen gas is released |
| light dependenf reaction | any chemical reaction that requires sunlight |
| chloroplast | the plant organelle where photosynthesis takes place |
| electron transport chain | when light energy is passed on to high energy electrons |
| ATP | Adenosine triphosphate |
| ADP | Adenosine diphosphate |
| calvin cycle | The process of continously removing Carbon Dioxide from the atmospher to convert to glucose |
| light independent reaction | no sunlight is produced and in a plant it is where carbon dioxide and oxygen are used to produce high energy sugars |
| glucose | high energy sugar that is produced during photosyntheses |
