1.

Photosynthesis uses sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into

A. oxygen

B. high energy sugars

C. ATP and oxygen

D. oxygen and high energy sugars

Your answer was INCORRECT.

Sunlight is used to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and sugars in the process of photosynthesis.

2. Plants gather energy from sunlight with light-absorbing molecules called

A. thylakoids

B. chloroplasts

C. pigments

D. glucose

Your answer was INCORRECT.

Pigment molecules, such as chlorophyll are used to gather energy from sunlight.
3. The stroma is the space that surrounds
A. thylakoids

B. chloroplasts

C. plants cells

D. all of the above

Your answer was INCORRECT.

The stroma is the space that surrounds the thylakoids.
4. Where do the light-dependent reactions take place?
A. in the stroma

B. outside the chloroplasts

C. only in chlorophyll molecules

D. in the thylakoid membranes

Your answer was INCORRECT.

The light reactions take place in the thylakoid membranes.
7. The main purpose of the photosynthetic process is considered to be the
A. conversion of light energy to chemical energy

B. production of carbon dioxide

C. production of water

D. production of chlorophyll

Your answer was INCORRECT.

The main purpose of photosynthesis is to covert the energy in sunlight into chemical energy.
9. Which of the following is incorporated into existing organic molecules during photosynthesis to build
carbohydrates?

A. water

B. glucose

C. carbon dioxide

D. oxygen

E. chlorophyll

Your answer was INCORRECT.
