The process by which plants and other autotrophs capture and use light energy to make food from carbon dioxide and water.

An organism that is able to capture energy from sunlight or chemicals and use it to produce it's own food.

An organism that cannot make it's own food and get's food by consuming other living things.

A green photosynthetic pigment found in the chloroplasts of plants, algae, and some bacteria.

The process by which oxygen and glucose undergo a complex series of chemical reactions inside cell, releasing energy.

The process by which cells release energy by breaking down food molecules without using oxygen.

The series of events in which a cell grows, prepares for division, and divides to form two daughter cells.

The first stage of the cell cycle that takes place before cell division occurs, during within a cell grows and makes a copy of it's DNA.

The process by which a cell a cell makes a copy of the DNA in it's nucleus before cell division.

`A threadlike structure within a cells nucleus that contains DNA that is passed from one generation to the next.

The second stage of the cell cycle during which the cell's nucleus divides into two new nuclei and one set of DNA is disturbed into each daughter cell.

The final stage of the cell cycle, in which the cell's cytoplasm divides, distributing the organelles into each of the two daughter cells.
