Term Definition
photosynthesis the process by which plants, some bacteria, and protestants use sunlight to produce sugar
cellular respiration converts sunlight into ATP
xylem the part of the plant where water enters through the leaf
stomata the part of the plant where carbon dioxide enters and oxygen exits
chlorophyll the green pigment common to all photosynthetic cells, absorbs all wavelengths of visible light except green
autotrophs produce organic compounds and oxygen through photosynthesis
Calvin cycle organic compounds are formed into CO2 and temporarily stored as ATP here
Light reactions light energy is converted into chemical energy and temporarily stored as ATP here
thylakoids small round disks in the chloroplast; where photosynthesis occurs
stroma primary electron acceptor
photostems collect energy from different wavelengths of life
