2. The Process of Photosynthesis Post test

Photosynthesis and cellular respiration depend upon each other because photosynthesis needs                                                           from cellular respiration, and cellular respiration needs                                                       from photosynthesis.

Oxygen is mostly a                    byproduct for plants, while                         is a needed food energy product for plants.

Put the descriptions/functions of the important workers for photosynthesis beside their proper term.

Select ALL of the following that are reactants or inputs for the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis.  (4 choices)

Why do the light-independent reactions not require sunlight energy?

When oxygen is released as a result of photosynthesis, it is a direct by-product of

The light reactions occur in the ________ and the dark reactions (Calvin cycle, Light-independent reactions) take place in the ________.

Where are glucose sugars synthesized/made?

Where does the carbon come from that is used to form glucose?

Select ALL of the following that are NOT products of the light-dependent reactions. (2 choices)

What is the function of NADPH and ATP?

Where do the light-dependent reactions occur?

What is the primary function of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis?

Select ALL of the following that are products of the light-independent reactions. (3 choices)

Select ALL of the following that are reactants of the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis. (3 choices)

Another name for the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis is the                         cycle.

Why is the process of photosynthesis important in the cycling of matter?

What powers ADP and NADP+ back up to ATP and NADPH after they leave the Calvin cycle?
