This is the energy conversion path for photosynthesis (from X energy to Y energy).
Sunlight --> Chemical
This stage of cellular respiration produces the single largest amount of ATP.
Electron Transport Chain
This specific pigment gives plants their green color and absorbs sunlight.
Chlorophyll
This is the specific molecule that undergoes fermentation in the absence of oxygen.
Pyruvate
This is the net amount of ATP produced during the glycolysis stage.
2 ATP
This is the energy conversion path for cellular respiration (from X energy to Y energy).
Chemical --> ATP
This high-yield process occurs in the mitochondria and requires oxygen.
Aerobic Respiration
In the equation for photosynthesis, these two substances are the products.
Glucose and Oxygen
This type of fermentation occurs in animal muscle cells and produces a 3-carbon waste product.
Lactic-acid fermentation
This is the approximate total range of ATP produced from a single glucose molecule when oxygen is present.
32-38 ATP
This is the primary relationship between the reactants and products of photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
The reactants of one are the products of the other.
This metabolic process occurs in the cytoplasm and breaks down one glucose molecule into two pyruvate molecules.
Glycolysis
This reaction stage occurs in the stroma and uses chemical energy rather than direct sunlight.
Light-independent reaction
Yeast and some bacteria use this anaerobic pathway to produce ethanol and CO2.
alcoholic fermentation
To reach a total of 36–38 ATP, this is the amount of ATP generally attributed to the Krebs Cycle alone.
