    The document contains 11 questions about photosynthesis, the structures and processes involved, including: the general equation for photosynthesis producing glucose; how photosynthesis powers the biosphere; the structure of chloroplasts; the two phases of photosynthesis; the pigments that absorb light energy; how photosystem II and I capture light to produce oxygen, ATP and NADPH; cyclic photophosphorylation producing ATP; how photosystem II absorbs light and produces oxygen; the variation in electron energy moving between photosystems; photorespiration; and strategies used by C4 and CAM plants to avoid photorespiration and conserve water.
