Match the following terms with their descriptions:

Anabolic or Anabolism = Chemical reaction in which energy is stored in molecules Endergonic = Chemical reaction that requires the absorption of energy Stroma or Lamellae = It is an alkaline (basic) aqueous fluid (protein rich) Thylakoid System = Stack of thylakoid is called granum Signup and view all the answers

Match the following functions with their corresponding structures in the chloroplast:

Inner Membrane = Regulates the passage of materials in and out of the chloroplast Thylakoid System = Occurs light dependent reaction Stroma or Lamellae = Synthesizes fatty acids, lipids, and carotenoids Thylakoid Space = Spaces outside the stroma Signup and view all the answers

Match the following contributions with their significance in photosynthesis:

Production of food = Contributes to the symbiotic relationship between plants, humans and animals Number one source of oxygen = Contributes to the carbon cycle Contributes to the symbiotic relationship between plants, humans and animals = Production of food Contributes to the carbon cycle = Number one source of oxygen Signup and view all the answers

Match the following processes with their characteristics:

Photosynthesis = An anabolic, endergonic, carbon dioxide (CO2) requiring process that uses light energy (photons) and water (H2O) to produce organic macromolecules (glucose) Anabolism = Chemical reaction in which energy is stored in molecules Endergonic Reaction = Chemical reaction that requires the absorption of energy Chlorophyll Occurs light dependent reaction = Photosynthesis Signup and view all the answers

Match the following terms with their roles in energy metabolism:

Anabolic or Anabolism = Stores energy in molecules Endergonic = Requires absorption of energy Photosynthesis = Uses light energy and water to produce organic macromolecules Chlorophyll Occurs light dependent reaction = Participates in energy metabolism Signup and view all the answers
