Compound used by cells to store and release energy
Process used by plants and other autotrophs to capture light energy and use it to power chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and energy-Rich carbohydrates such as sugars and starches
Light-absorbing molecule used by plants to gather the suns energy
Principal pigment of plants and other photosynthetic organisms
Organelle found in cells of plants and some other organisms that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy
Set of reactions in photosynthesis that use energy from light to produce ATP and NADPH
Set of reactions in photosynthesis that do not require energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugar also called the Calvin cycle
