Question | Answer |
aerobic respiration | the set of the metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert glucose into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products |
alcoholic fermentation | a type of cellular respiration which does not require oxygen (anaerobic respiration), and involves the breaking down of glucose to pyruvic acid and then finally ethanol. |
anaerobic respiration | the process of generating energy by the oxidation of nutrients without oxygen. |
ATP | considered as the universal energy currency for metabolism |
chemosynthesis | synthesis of organic compounds by energy derived from chemical reactions, typically in the absence of sunlight. |
lactic acid fermentation | a biological process by which some sugars are converted into cellular energy and the metabolite lactate. It is an anaerobic fermentation reaction that occurs in some bacteria and animal cells, such as muscle cells. |
photosynthesis | process by which organisms use light energy to produce ATP and other organic molecules from inorganic molecules |
products | substance formed as a result of a chemical reaction. |
reactants | substance that is the starting material in a chemical reaction. |
yeast | unicellular and is used in anaerobic fermentation |
Mitochondria | organelle of a eukaryotic cell that converts food into energy called ATP. |
Chloroplast | Contain chlorophyll for photosynthesis. Change light energy into chemical energy. |
