| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Structures contain light- absorbing substances. | Pigment |
| Primary pigment involved in photosynthesis, absorbs mostly blue and red light and reflects green and yellow light. | Chlorophyll |
| Pigments that produce yellow and orange fall leaf colors, as well as the colors of many fruits, vegetables, and flowers. | Caroteniod |
| Clusters of pigments are embedded in the membranes of the disk-shaped structure. | Thylakiods |
| Series of molecules through which excited electrons are passed along a thylakiod membrane. | Electron transport chains |
| An electron carrier that provides the high-energy electrons needed to make carbon-hydrogen bonds in the third stage of photosynthesis. | NADPH |
| Transfer of carbon dioxide to organic compoun ds. | Carbon dioxide fixation |
| A series of enzyme-assisted chemical reactions that produces a three-carbon sugar. | Calvin cycle |
| Metabolic processes that require oxygen. | Aerobic |
| Metabolic processes that do not require oxygen. | Anaerobic |
| First stage of cellular respiration, glucose is broken down in the cytoplasm. | Glycolysis |
| Forms an electron carrier. | NADH |
| Acetyl-CoA enters a series of enzyme-assisted reactions. | Kerbs cycle |
| Another type of electron carrier. | FADH2 |
| Recycling of NAD+ using an organic hydrogen acceptor. | Fermentation |
