Phosphate Flip-Flop
This molecule is known as the "energy currency" of the cell.
ATP
This organelle is where photosynthesis takes place in plant cells.
Chloroplast
This organelle is the site of cellular respiration.
Mitochondria
These are the four major types of biological macromolecules found in living things:
Carbs, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids
This gas is a reactant in photosynthesis and a product of cellular respiration.
CO2
What are the 3 pieces of an ATP molecule?
Adenine, ribose sugar, phosphate group.
This green pigment absorbs light for photosynthesis.
Chlorophyll (thylakoid)
This gas is required to accept electrons in cellular respiration.
O2
This macromolecule is the main source of quick energy for cells.
Carbs
This gas is a product of photosynthesis and a reactant of cellular respiration
O2
When ATP loses a phosphate group, it becomes this lower-energy molecule.
ADP
These are the three reactants needed for photosynthesis:
CO2, H2O, Light Energy
This first stage of cellular respiration occurs in the cytoplasm and breaks glucose into molecules of pyruvate.
Glycolysis
What are the building blocks for proteins?
Amino acids
This molecule (C6H12O6) is produced in photosynthesis and broken down during respiration
Glucose
This bond is broken when ATP releases energy for fcellular work.
This stage of photosynthesis occurs in the thylakoid and produces ATP and NADPH. Waste product is O2.
Light-dependent reactions.
This stage of cellular respiration produces the most ATP:
The electron transport chain
What are the building blocks of nucleic acids?
Nucleotides
What cellular process uses this equation:
6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Photosynthesis
This cellular process in the mitochondria regenerates ATP from ADP using energy from glucose.
Cellular Respiration
During the calvin cycle, this molecule from the light-dependent reaction provides energy needed to build glucose.
ATP
If oxygen is not available, cells switch to this anaerobic process so that glycolysis can continue:
Fermentation
What are the building blocks for lipids?
Fatty acids
What is the missing piece of this reaction notated by "X"?
O2 + C6H12O6 ---> CO2 + X + ATP
H2O
