Energy
ability to do work or bring about a change
Energy
energy cannot be created or
destroyed, but it can be changed from one form to another
First law of thermodynamics
process by solar energy converts carbon
dioxide into carbohydrates
Photosynthesis
organisms that cannot synthesize organic
compounds and must take in organic food
Heterotrophs
chemical processes that do not require oxygen
Anaerobic
energy of motion
Kinetic energy
energy cannot be
changed from one form to another without a loss of usable
energy.
Second law of thermodynamics
organisms that cannot synthesize organic
compounds and must take in organic food
Heterotrophs
represents the
distance between the peaks
Wavelength
Breakdown of glucose into 2 pyruvates
Glycolysis
stored energy in a potentially usable form
Potential energy
measure of
disorder or randomness in a
system
Entropy
occur in the dark.
Calvin Cycle Reactions
form of energy that
travels in waves and has
both electric and magnetic
fields
Electromagnetic Radiation
anerobic
process that produces a
limited amount of ATP in the
absence
Fermentation
energy associated with atoms in a molecule
Chemical energy
occurs when a
molecule binds to an enzyme and
decreases its activity.
Enzyme Inhibition
occur
when the sun is out.
Light Reactions
the process cells acquire energy by
breaking down organic molecules
Cellular Respiration
move electrons
from donor to donor releasing free
energy at each step
Electron Transport chain
energy possessed by an object as the
result of its motion
Mechanical energy
Some proteins require ions
or molecules
cofactors
organisms that
can capture energy and synthesize organic molecules from
inorganic nutrients
autotrophs
chemical processes that require oxygen.
Aerobic
uses this electron
transport to produce ATP
Chemiosmosis
