How We Get Energy
These organisms make their own food through methods like photosynthesis.
What are autotrophs?
The role glucose and O2 play in the photosynthesis equation.
What are products of photosynthesis?
The type of organisms that undergo cellular respiration.
What is all organisms?
These organisms get their energy from consuming other organic matter.
What are heterotrophs?
The type of energy that plants take in to make glucose.
What is light energy?
The anaerobic step of respiration in the cytoplasm where glucose is broken down.
What is glycolysis?
All of the chemical reactions occuring in the cells.
What is metabolism?
The molecules within chloroplasts that absorb light. i.e. chlorophyll and carotenoids.
What are pigments?
The aerobic steps of respiration in the mitochondria where pyruvate is converted to CO2, water, and ATP.
What are the Krebs Cycle and electron transport chain?
The molecule that food is broken down to that circulates in our blood (AKA blood sugar) or that plants make through photosynthesis.
What is glucose?
The phases of photosynthesis.
What are light dependent and light independent reactions?
A type of respiration where muscles get limited oxygen to properly undergo aerobic respiration.
What is lactic acid fermentation?
The molecule that serves as energy for the CELL consisting of three phosphate groups.
What is ATP?
The cycle in light independent reactions of photosynthesis.
What is the Calvin Cycle?
The step of respiration that is the same for aerobic respiration, lactic acid fermentation, and alcohol fermentation.
What is glycolysis?
