Reactant & Products
Just Breathe
What's Inside?
100

The reactant 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 fermentation

100

Jellylike fluid in which glycolysis occurs.

Cytoplasm

200

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

Glucose

200

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

Oxygen

200

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

Mitochondrion

300

These electromagnetic waves are necessary for photosynthesis.

Sunlight

300

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

Anaerobic
300

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

Electron Transport Chain (ETC)

400

This reactant in photosynthesis is a product of cellular respiration.

Carbon dioxide

400

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

Aerobic

400

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

Chemical energy transferal process based on movement of phosphate ions between molecules.

Phosphorylation

500

The first stage of cellular respiration in which glucose is split into 2 molecules of pyruvic acid.

Glycolysis

500

The movement of these particles in the ETC generates a current that the transport proteins use to pump H+ ions across the mitochondrion’s inner membrane.
