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 fermentation

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 cells.

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 part of the mitochondria.

matrix

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

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

phosphorylation

500

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

aerobic

500

The cycle named for the 1961 chemistry Nobel prize winner occurs in this part of the chloroplast which produces glucose.

stroma

500

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

stored for later + eaten by animals

500

The stage in cellular respiration when the most ATPs are produced

The Electron Transport Chain: ETP
