Numb 1
This process takes place in the chloroplasts and converts sunlight into chemical energy.
Photosysnthesis
These molecules are the main source of energy for your body and include sugars like glucose.
Carbohydrates
The main sugar that provides energy for cells.
Glucose
What breaks down glucose to make ATP.
Cellular Respiration
These biological molecules speed up chemical reactions without being consumed.
Enzymes
These macromolecules are made of amino acids and are responsible for building and repairing tissues in the body.
Proteins
The organelle that produces most of the cell’s ATP.
Mitochondria
What happens in chloroplasts and converts sunlight into chemical energy.
Photosynthesis
This type of enzyme works by lowering the activation energy of a chemical reaction, making it happen faster.
Catalyst
This process occurs when cells break down glucose without oxygen to produce a small amount of ATP.
Anaerobic
Where photosynthesis happens in plant cells.
Chloroplasts
What is amino acids?
Building blocks of protein.
This process occurs in the mitochondria and converts glucose into ATP in the presence of oxygen.
Cellular Respiration
This molecule can either speed up a reaction or be inhibited by molecules that block its active site.
Enzymes
The molecule that stores and transfers energy in cells.
ATP
What is a Cellular Respiration?
Celluar respiration is a process in which glucose and oxygen are used to produce energy in the form of ATP for cells.
This tiny organelle is often called the “powerhouse of the cell” because it produces most of the cell’s ATP.
Mitochondrion
This organelle is known as the “powerhouse of the cell” because it produces most of the cell’s ATP.
Mitochondria
Called the “powerhouse of the cell” because it produces most of the ATP.
Mitochondrion
What is energy?
Energy is the ability to move things or change.
