| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| the ability to do work | energy |
| the study of the flow and transformation of energy in the universe | thermdynamics |
| all of the cells chemical reactions | metabolism |
| the anabolic pathway in which light energy from the sun is converted to chemical energy for use by the cell. | photosynthesis |
| the catabolic pathway in which organic molecules are broken down to release energy for use by the cell. | Cellular respiration |
| the most important biological molecule that provides chemical energy. | Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) |
| flattened saclike membranes that are arranged in stacks. | Thylakoid |
| the stacks that the thylakoid makes. | granum |
| the fluid filled space that is outside the grana. | Stroma |
| light absorbing colored molecules. | Pigment |
| the major electron carrier | NAPD+ |
| the major electron carrier | Calvin Cycle |
| an enzyme | Rubisco |
| metabolic processes that do not require oxygen. | Anaerobic process |
| this includes the Krebs cycle and electron transport. | Aerobic respiration |
| metabolic processes that require oxygen | aerobic |
| the process in which glucose is broken down in the cytoplasm. | Glycolysis |
| the series of reactions in which pyruvate is broken down into carbon dioxide. | Krebs cycle |
| this occurs in the cytoplasm and regenerates the cell's supply of NAD+ while producing a small amount of ATP. | Fermentation |
