Photosynthesis

Anabolic (small molecules combined)
Endergonic (stores energy)
Carbon dioxide (CO2) requiring process that

uses light energy (photons) and water (H2O) to produce organic macromolecules (glucose).

Chlorophyll Molecules

Located in the thylakoid membranes
Chlorophyll have Mg+ in the center
Chlorophyll

pigments harvest energy (photons) by absorbing certain wavelengths (blue-420 nm and red-660 nm are most important)
Plants are green because the green wavelength is reflected, not absorbed.
