This is a process that captures energy from light to form sugars to store chemical energy.
What is photosynthesis?
100
These reactions involve chlorophyll absorbing sunlight and breaking down water molecules, transferring energy to ATP and releasing oxygen gas.
What are the light-dependent reactions?
100
This process converts sugar into ATP using oxygen
What is Cellular Respiration?
100
Aerobic respiration is also called the _______ Cycle
What is the Krebs Cycle?
200
This is how ATP releases energy.
What is removing the third phosphate group?
200
These are disk-shaped flattened membranes found inside chloroplasts.
What are thylakoids?
200
These reactions involve taking energy from carriers like ATP and NADPH to build sugar molecules with rearranged carbon dioxide
What are the light-dependent reactions OR the Calvin Cycle?
200
This is the term that describes requiring oxygen for a process
What is aerobic?
200
Aerobic respiration takes place in the part of mitochondria called ___________.
What is the mitochondrial matrix?
300
This is the type of molecule that is most commonly broken down to make ATP
What is Carbohydrate/sugar/glucose?
300
This is the pigment found in the thylakoid membranes, responsible for absorbing/capturing sunlight energy.
What is chlorophyll?
300
This is the fluid-filled space inside the chloroplast where glucose is constructed.
What is the stroma?
300
This is the splitting of glucose that starts cellular respiration
What is Glycolysis?
300
ATP stands for ______________________
What is Adenosine TriPhosphate?
400
This type of molecule holds the most chemical energy in its bonds, and is often stored in an animal's body to be broken down for ATP in times when food is in short supply.
What are lipids?
400
This is the organelle where photosynthesis takes place.
What is chloroplast?
400
These are the reactants for photosynthesis
What are:
Water
carbon dioxide
(and light energy - however, as this is not a physical substance it is not technically a reactant)
400
This is the organelle where Cellular Respiration occurs
What is the mitochondria?
400
Chlorophyll reflects green light but best absorbs ________ and ___________ light
What are: Red light and Blue light?
500
This is the name for an organism making its own food molecules without light
What is chemosynthesis?
500
This color of light is reflected by chlorophyll.
What is green?
500
These are the products of photosynthesis (both stages)
What are
oxygen gas
and
glucose
500
These are the products of Cellular Respiration
What are
carbon dioxide
water
ATP
500
After glycolysis, the two 3-carbon sugars that result are called __________________
