ATP
This is the true words for what ATP stands for.
What is Adenosine Triphosphate?
This organelle is known as the powerhouse of the cell because it is here that cellular respiration occurs.
What is the mitochondria?
This green pigment, found in chloroplasts, is responsible for trapping solar energy.
What is chlorophyll?
These organisms, usually plants, sit at the base of every food chain because they make their own food.
What are producers (or autotrophs)?
This is the energy-carrying molecule that is produced in cellular respiration.
What is ATP?
To release energy from ATP, this part of the molecule must be removed.
What is the phosphate group?
This is the first step of cellular respiration, occurring in the cytoplasm, where glucose is split into two pyruvate molecules.
What is glycolysis?
Plants take in water and this gas as the primary raw materials for photosynthesis.
What is carbon dioxide?
In a food web diagram, these items show the direction in which energy is flowing from one organism to another.
What are arrows?
Cellular respiration produces ATP and two other products.
What are carbon dioxide and water?
These three things make up an ATP molecule.
What are an adenine base, ribose, and three phosphate groups?
In this stage, also known as the Citric Acid Cycle, pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide.
What is the Krebs Cycle?
The chloroplast are made of these two parts
What are grana and stroma?
This type of consumer eats only plants
What is a herbivore?
This is how many ATP molecules are created during Aerobic Respiration.
What is about 36-38?
Of the three main biological molecules (carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins), this one provides the most ATP when broken down.
What are lipids?
This type of respiration occurs only when oxygen is present and is far more efficient at producing ATP.
What is aerobic respiration?
This is the specific cycle name for the light-independent reaction that produces glucose.
What is the Calvin Cycle?
These organisms, such as fungi and bacteria, get energy by breaking down dead organic matter.
What are decomposers?
Photosynthesis is a process that is separated into these two parts.
What are light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions (the Cavin Cycle)?
This lower-energy molecule is created when ATP loses one of its three phosphate groups.
What is ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate)?
When your muscles are deprived of oxygen during heavy exercise, they produce this compound through fermentation.
What is lactic acid (or lactate)?
Inside the chloroplast, the light-dependent reactions take place within these flattened membranes.
What are thylakoids?
According to this food web, there are many heterotrophs in the ecosystem. Name one.
What is anything other than a plant?
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are two different processes but they are related because of this.
What is the products of cellular respiration are the reactants of photosynthesis?
What is they are opposites of each other?
