| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| process by which energy of glucose is converted to the energy of ATP in a cell | cellular respiration |
| total of all chemical processes occuring in an organism | metabolism |
| metabolic phase in which larger molecules are constructed from simpler ones and energy is stored | anabolism |
| metabolic phase in which larger molecules are broken down resulting in the release of energy | catabolism |
| organic compound composed of a base, sugar, and 3 phosphate groups that store and control the release of energy in a cell | ATP |
| phase of cellular respiration not requiring oxygen | anaerobic |
| reaction breaking down glucose in anaerobic cellular respiration | glycolysis |
| phase of cellular respiration requiring energy | aerobic |
| chain of reactions in which pyruvic acid reacts with water to produce weak acid by-products of carbon dioxide and oxygen | kreb's cycle |
| form of cellular respiration that does not require oxygen, instead it uses yeasts and bacteria | fermentation |
| process in which muscle cells supply needed energy | lactic acid |
