| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Organisms | get the energy they need from food. |
| cellular resiration | process that releases energy from food in the presence of oxygen |
| photosynthesis removes | carbon dioxide from the atmosphere,and cellular respiration puts it back. |
| photheesis releases | oxygen into atmosphere,and cellular respiration uses that oxygen to release energy from food |
| calorie | amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius. |
| cellular respiration | organisms can obtain energy from food by a process |
| aerobic | pathways of cellular respiration that require oxygen are side to be aerobic |
| anaerobic | glycolysis is therefore said to be anaerobic |
| what happen during glycolysis | 1 molecule of glucose,a 6-carbon compound ,is transformed into 2 molecules of atomosphere,and cellular repiraion uses pyruvic acid,,a 3 carbon compound |
| what happen during Krebs cycle | Pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide in series of energy-extracting reactions |
