heterotroph organisms that obtain energy from the food it consumes
cellular respiration release energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen
aerobic respiration organisms that use oxygen to turn fats and sugar into chemical energy
chloroplast captures energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy
thylakoid pancake stack; collect the light energy
mitochondria converts the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient
calvin cycle reaction of photosynthesis that use the energy stored by the light dependent reaction to form glucose and other molecules
lacin acid fermentation the conversion of pyruvic acid that forms as a result of glycolysis into Lactic acid
alcoholic fermentation metabolic process that produces chemical changes in organic substrates through the action of enzymes
krebs cycle pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide
glycolysis a molecule of glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvic acid

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.
