Vocab Words from Chapter 9

QuestionAnswer
ATP Energy-storing moelcule in cells composed of adenosine molecule, a ribose sugar and three phosphate groups;energy is stored in the moelcules. Chemcial bonds can be used quickly and easily by cells.
ADP Molecule formed from the breaking off of a phosphate group from ATP; results in a release of energy that is used for biological reactions.
Photosynethisis The process that uses the sun's energy to make simple sugars.
Light dependent reaction Phase of photosynthesis,converts light energy into chemical energy.
Light independent reaction The molecules of ATP produced in the light phase of photosynthesis that depend reaction are the used to fuel the light independent reaction.
Pigment Molecule that absorbs the specific wavelength of sunlight.
Chlorophyll Absorbs most wavelengths of light except green.
Electron transport chain A series of protiens embedded in thylekoid membrane.
NADP+ Electron carrier molecule, accepts excited electrons, it becomes NADPH.
Photolysis To replace the lost electrons molecules of water are split in the first photosystem.
Calvin cycle A series of reactions that use carbon dioxide to form sugars.
Cellular respiration The process by which in the mitochondria, breaks down food molecules to produce ATP
Anaerobic The first stage glycolisis, chemical reaction that doesn't require oxygen
Aerobic The last two stages that require oxygen to be completed
Glycolisis Is a series of chemical reactions in the cytoplasm of a cell that break down glocose
Cetric acid cycle A series of chemical reactions similar to the Calvin cycle in that the moelcule used in the first reaction is also one of the end products.
Lactic acid fermintation One of the processes that supplys energy when oxygen is scarce
Alcoholic fermintation Is used by east cells and bacteria to produce CO2 and ethyl alcohol

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
