100

This is the reactant that is taken in by drinking or through roots.


Water

100

When cheese, yogurt, soy sauce, or sourdough are made, this type of fermentation occurs


Lactic acid

100

Jellylike fluid in which glycolysis occurs.


cytoplasm


100

The process of making glucose from light, energy, and water 


Photosynthesis


100

This process occurs in all cells where glucose is broken down and produces ATP


cellular respiration


200

The molecule used to store excess polysaccharides in animals.


glycogen


200

This is the gas that organisms breathe in during cellular respiration.


Oxygen

200

Anthocyanins and carotenoids are found in this type of cell.


Plant

200

This molecule is larger than glucose but does not store as much energy


ATP

200

The location of the aerobic stages of cellular respiration


mitochondria


300

This product of photosynthesis is the main food particle that is used in manufacturing ATP


Glucose

300

When beer or wine is made, this type of fermentation product is produced. 


ethyl alcohol


300

The cycle of reactions that won Hans Krebs the Nobel Prize occurs in this organelle


mitochondria


300

Final product in photosynthesis


Glucose

300

What happens when muscle cells use all of the available oxygen and begin converting glucose to ATP without oxygen


shortness of breath


400

These electromagnetic waves are necessary for photosynthesis.


Sunlight or light energy

400

This is the type of respiration that takes place when no oxygen is present.


anaerobic


400

Inside the mitochondria’s folded membrane, this final stage of cellular respiration uses high-energy molecules to produce most of the energy in cellular respiration. 


ETC, i.e. electron transport chain


400

The two molecules that provide energy for the cells and “allow for life to exist”


Glucose and ATP

400

Cellular process producing ATP without oxygen or anaerobic respiration


fermentation


500

This reactant in photosynthesis is a product of cellular respiration.


Carbon Dioxide

500

The most efficient type of respiration that takes place when oxygen is present.


aerobic


500

The glucose-producing cycle named for the 1961 chemistry Nobel prize winner (Calvin cycle) occurs in the stroma, which is part of this organelle.


chloroplast


500

Two reasons why there is extra glucose in a plant after photosynthesis occurs


stored for later/eaten by animals


500

The stage of cellular respiration where carbon dioxide is used to complete the breakdown of pyretic acid molecules, releasing energy


Krebs Cycle
