Photosynthesis

Front

Which gas is removed from the atmosphere during photosynthesis?

Back

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is absorbed by plants during photosynthesis.

Front

What do plants release during photosynthesis?

Back

Plants release oxygen (O2) as a byproduct of photosynthesis.

Front

Which organelle is the site of photosynthesis?

Back

The chloroplast is the organelle where photosynthesis occurs.

Front

What is the pigment in chloroplasts that performs photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll is the green pigment in chloroplasts that captures light energy for photosynthesis.

Front

What is the correct equation for photosynthesis?

Back

The equation for photosynthesis is: CO2 + light + H2O → O2 + Sugar.

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll.

Front

Why is chlorophyll important in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, which is essential for converting carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.

Front

What role does sunlight play in photosynthesis?

Back

Sunlight provides the energy needed for the photosynthesis process.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

The two main stages are the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle).

Front

What is produced during the light-dependent reactions?

Back

The light-dependent reactions produce ATP, NADPH, and oxygen.
