Description
This set of 60 enrichment, reinforcement, and review task cards for your lessons on photosynthesis will ensure that your students have mastered the information. Choose to use the traditional printable version, or the paperless, digital Google Apps version. Questions cover ADP and ATP, pigments, leaf structure, the chloroplast, electron carriers, the light dependent reactions, the light independent reactions, the C4 pathway, and CAM plants. Detailed list of concepts can be found below.
Suitable for life science and biology students in grades 9 - 12.
Both printable and digital versions of this resource are included. The student handouts can be printed or used in the paperless digital format in your Google Drive, Google Classroom, Microsoft OneDrive, or similar. This resource is perfect for traditional classroom settings, 1:1 schools, or for distance learning.

Topics covered are:
- Autotrophs, Heterotrophs, the flow of energy through an ecosystem.
- Chemical energy and ATP: Definitions/explanations of ADP and ATP, the structure of ATP, how ADP becomes ATP, uses of ATP.
- Overview of photosynthesis: Reactants, products, and an equation for photosynthesis.
- Chlorophyll and other pigments: pigment, chloroplasts, electromagnetic spectrum, visible spectrum, absorption and reflection of different wavelengths of light, types of chlorophyll.
- Leaf Anatomy: Students will label the parts of a leaf and define cuticle, palisade, spongy cells, mesophyll, stomata, vascular bundle, xylem, phloem
- Structure of the Chloroplast: Students will label a drawing and define outer membrane, inner membrane, thylakoids, grana, stroma, chlorophyll, photosystems.
- Electron carriers: Short discussion on electrons, energy levels of electrons, excited electrons, electron transport chain, NADP+, NADPH.
- An overview of the stages of photosynthesis: Light dependent reactions and light independent reactions. Includes an equation for photosynthesis that outlines the reactants and the products of photosynthesis.
- The Light dependent reactions: Photosystem I and photosystem II, splitting of water molecules, electron transport chain, production of ATP and NADPH, release of oxygen, ATP synthase.
- Calvin Cycle: Includes basics of carbon fixation, reduction of PGA to form PGAL, regeneration of RuBP, how glucose is formed.
- Alternative Pathways: Water loss from the plant, the C4 Pathway, the CAM pathway.
- Factors affecting the rate of photosynthesis: water, temperature, light intensity.
