QuestionAnswer
adenosine triphospate (ATP) adenosine molecule with three phosphate groups attached
adenosine monophosphate (AMP) adenosine molecule with one phosphate group attached
adenosine diphosphate (ADP) adenosine molecule with two phosphate groups attached
photosynthesis process that uses the sun's energy to make simple sugars
light-dependent reactions phase of photosynthesis that converts light energy into chemical energy in the form of ATP; results in the splitting of water and the release of oxygen
light-independent reactions phase of photosynthesis where energy from light-dependent reactions is used to produce glucose and additional ATP molecules
pigments molecules that absorb specific wavelengths of sunlight
chlorophyll absorbs most wavelengths of light except green; gives leaves a green appearance
electron transport series of proteins embedded in the thylakoid membrane
photolysis water molecules are split in the first photosystem to replace lost electrons
Calvin cycle second phase of photosynthesis; does not require light; series of reactions that use carbon dioxide to form sugars
cellular respiration process by which mitochondria break down food molecules to produce ATP
anaerobic no oxygen required
aerobic requires oxygen
glycolysis series of chemical reactions in the cytoplasm of a cell that break down glucose, a six-carbon compound, into tow molecules of pyruvic acid, a three-carbon compound
citric acid cycle also called the Krebs cycle; series of chemical reactions similar to the Calvin cycle
alcoholic fermentation used by yeast cells and some bacteria to produce CO2 and ethyl alcohol
lactic acid fermentation process that supplies energy when oxygen is scarce

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.
