The process by which plants and other autotroph 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 its own food.

An organism that cannot make its own food and gets food by consuming other living things.

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

The process in which oxygen and glucose undergo a complex series of chemical reactions inside cells. releasing energy.

The process by which cells release energy by breaking down food molecules with out using oxygen.

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

The first stage if the cell cycle that takes place before cell division occurs, during which a cell grows and makes a copy of its DNA

The process by which a cell makes a copy of the DNA in its nucleus before cell division

A threadlike structure within a cell's 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 unto two new nuclei and one set of DNA is distributed into each daughter cell.

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