| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The process of converting the inorganic carbon found in carbon dioxide to organic carbon in glucose | Carbon Fixation |
| Process that uses the suns energy to convert water and carbon dioxide to glucose | Photosynthesis |
| The green pigment found in the chloroplasts of plant cells that absorbs energy from the sun and uses that energy in the first stage of photosynthesis | Chlorophyll |
| The process that converts glucose and oxygen into carbon dioxide and water and releases energy as ATP | Cellular Respiration |
| A chemical compound used by living organisms to store and release energy | ATP |
| A chemical compound that can be converted to ATP with the addition of 1 phosphate group | ADP |
| The first step in cellular respiration that takes takes place in the cytoplasm and converts one molecule of glucose to a net 2 molecules in ATP | Glycolysis |
| process that requires oxygen to produce a net of 36 molecules of ATP for every one molecule of glucose | aerobic respiration |
| Part of cell where aerobic respiration takes place | Mitochondria |
| the part of aerobic respiration that takes place in the mitchondria and produces 2 molecules of ATP for every 1 molecule of glucose | krebs cycle |
| the part of aerobic respiration that occurs in the mitochondria after the Krebs Cycle and produces a net of 36 more ATP molecules for every one molecule of glucose | Electron Transport Chain |
| Process that does not require oxygen and produces a net of 2 molecules of ATP for every one molecule of glucose | Anearobic respiration |
| anaerobic cellular respiration that occurs in animals and some bacteria | lactic acid fermentation |
| anaerobic cellular respiration that occurs in plants and other microorganisms such as yeast | alchoholic fermentation |
| stores H20 in plants | Central Vacuole |
| Organelle where photosynthesis takes place | Chloroplasts |
| stack of thylakoids | Granum |
| Inside a thylakoid | lumen |
| the green chlorophyll greatly reduced reduced revealing the other pigments | causes leaves to change color in the Fall |
| step one of cellular respiration | Glycolysis |
| step two pf cellular respiration | Krebs Cycle |
| step three of cellular respiration | Electron transport chain |
| 6CO2+6H20 yields energy C6H1206+602 | Photosynthesis |
| occurs all of the time in all cells glucose and oxygen are the reactants carbon dioxide and water are the products chemical bonds in glucose is its energy source results in energy stored as ATP | Cellular Respiration |
| Occurs in the chlorophyll when in the presence of light carbon dioxide and water are the reactants glucose and oxygen are the products light is the energy source results in energy stored as glucose | Photosynthesis |
