Molecules
The molecule that is a reactant in Photosynthesis but a product in Cellular Respiration. It doesn't contain any hydrogen atoms.
What is Carbon Dioxide?
Photosynthesis occurs in this part of a cell.
What are Chloroplasts?
This cell organelle is found in eukaryotic cells only, and it is where the process of cellular respiration takes place.
What are Mitochondria?
The reason we see colors is because pigments _______ certain wavelengths of light. Most plants appear green because green light is ________ed.
What is Reflect?
This is a molecule with the formula C6H12O6. It is short term energy for cells.
What is Glucose?
This atom is the other product of photosynthesis that isn’t glucose.
What is Oxygen?
This is the part of a plant that is responsible for conducting photosynthesis.
What are Leaves?
After glycolysis, this is one of the two processes that can take place. There are two types of this process, and it is anaerobic, meaning it does not require oxygen.
What is Fermentation?
These are the molecules responsible for absorbing sunlight to power photosynthesis.
What are Pigments?
This comes from the sun and is helpful during photosynthesis.
What is Sunlight?
This molecule is a product of photosynthesis and reactant of cellular respiration.
What is Water?
Photosynthesis uses these kinds of reactions and they require sunlight.
What are the Light Dependent Reactions?
This is the first step in Cellular Respiration in which glucose is split in half, creating pyruvic acid.
What is Glycolysis?
This is what pigments do to light in order to capture energy from the sun. The color black does this to all wavelengths of light, and is therefore described as the absence of light.
What is Absorb?
This is a molecule created in one of the steps of Cellular Respiration. It is formed by splitting glucose in half.
What is Pyruvic Acid?
This is a product of cellular respiration and is a short-term energy supply for cells.
What is ATP?
These kinds of organisms are plants. (scientific name)
What are Autotrophs?
This is one of the three steps of Cellular Respiration. During this step, high energy electrons are used to power ATP synthase, which produces ATP.
What is the Electron Transport Chain?
This is the main pigment involved in photosynthesis in most plants, and it is found in the chloroplasts of plant cells. It reflects green light.
What is Chlorophyll?
When an organism produces food for itself through means without sunlight.
What is Chemosynthesis?
These are molecules that carry energy through the Electron Transport Chain and are used to generate lots of ATP.
What are High Energy Electron Carriers?
This cycle is called the light independent reaction. It creates glucose.
What is the Calvin Cycle?
During this step in Cellular Respiration, pyruvic acid is broken down, creating carbon dioxide, ATP, and high energy electron carriers.
What is Kreb’s Cycle?
This is a less common pigment found in plants that often causes an orange coloration. It is found in leaves in the fall, and shares its name with a common vegetable.
What are Carotenoids?
The type of acid produced in the joints when doing physical activity.
What is Lactic Acid?
