What transport forms of sugars are commonly made by linking two together to form a disaccharide?
monosaccharides
Is the energy from sunlight trapped by chlorophyll located in the electron transport chain?
No, the energy trapped by chlorophyll is located in photosystem I and II. Light energy is first captured by PS II and an electron is then transferred to a primary electron acceptor known as plastoquinone. Pq then transfers it's electron to the cytochrome complex that transfers its energy to the electron transport system which passes it on to plastocyanin which in turn gives its electron to PS I where it is re-excited by photons. This process is known as the electron transport but the energy captured by chlorophyll is located in the photosystems.
In photosynthesis is chlorophyll considered a reactant or a product?
Chlorophyll is actually a catalyst, an enzyme that facilitates the chemical reaction but is not changed by the reaction. When writing the photosynthesis equation out, the word 'chlorophyll' is often written over the "yields" arrow to indicate "in the presence of chlorophyll yields".
Electrons that chlorophyll loses to the electron transport chain are replenished by what molecules?
Water molecules. The water is split and electrons from it are used to replace the electrons in the chlorophyll pigment.
Where do plants get the energy they need from a chemical reaction?
During photosynthesis, a plants chlorophyll underoges a chemical reaction with minerals, sunlight, and all the water it takes in to form sugars to stay alive!
What is the job of Chlorophyll in photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll converts carbon dioxide into sugars with the help of sunlight.
What is A green pigment that captures light energy?
Chlorophyll is used by autotrophs to synthesize simple sugars through photosynthesis
Where does phorosynthesis take place?
In the chloroplasts or chlorophyll of the cells of a plant. Where Glycolosis, the Kregs Cycle and the Electron Transport Chain break down Carbon Dioxide, Water, and energy from the Sun, into Oxygen and Glucose sugars.
Photosynthesis works how?
Photosynthesis can happen in plants because they have chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the pigment that makes plants green. Chlorophyll captures the Sun's energy and uses it to make sugars out of carbon dioxide from the air and water. The sugars fuel a plant's roots, stems, and leaves so the plant can grow.
Why plants have chloroplasts and chlorophyll?
it helps with photosynthesis and generates sugars from the air and light
Does chlorophyll needed for production of sugar?
Yes, chlorophyll is important in the production of sugars, mainly sucrose known as photosynthate, as it is the product of photosynthesis. There are several types of chlorophyll, chlorophyll 'a' being the most important, as it is the molecule which makes photosynthesis possible. It passes on its energized electrons (excited to a new energy level by solar energy) to other molecules, which will manufacture sugars.
What do plants need in the process of photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll Further answer Chlorophyll enables photosynthesis to happen and the plant needs carbon dioxide to convert to sugars in the process.
Why do leaves transport tissue?
They don't - they transport substances. (Water and CO2 in, sugars and O2 out)
How does chloraphyll help the plants?
Chlorophyll is part of the photosynthetic process which converts carbon dioxide into sugars using sunlight. Chlorophyll is generally the part that absorbs sunlight.
What structure in vascular plants transport sugar?
Phloem transport sugars, Xylem transports water
What does chlorophyll allow a plant cell to do that an animal cannot?
produce glucose (sugars) through photosynthesis
What green molecule that enables plants to turn water carbon dioxide and sunlight into sugars?
Chlorophyll
