Cell Energy
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| ATP | The cell’s energy currency. |
| ADP | Adenosine diphosphate |
| photosynthesis | A two part process used by autotrophs to make food in the form of sugar |
| Calvin Cycle | This reaction combines CO2 +rubisco + C5 molecule to produce sugar. |
| chemosynthesis | Organisms obtain energy from inorganic molecules instead of light. |
| light reactions | The process in photosynthesis where the sun’s rays are captured by chlorophyll. |
| electron transport chain | A series of molecules that pass energy along |
| photolysis | This means light splits water |
| anaerobic | This step is part of respiration and takes place without oxygen |
| glycolysis | The initial breakdown of sugar occurs in this process producing 4 ATP's. |
| lactic acid | Strenuous exercise causes a build up of this in muscles |
| alcoholic fermentation | Ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide are end products of this |
| fermentation | This is an anaerobic process that occurs after gylcolysis if no oxygen is available |
| respiration | The process by which food particles are broken down to release energy. |
| aerobic | This is a step that takes place in respiration and uses oxygen |
| citric acid cycle | This is the second step of aerobic respiration and produces lots of carbon dioxide |
