Across
  1. 3. Process during cellular respiration that breaks down a carbon molecule to produce molecules that are used in the electron transport chain
  2. 4. Membrane-bound structure within chloroplasts that contains chlorophyll and other light-absorbing pigments used in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis
  3. 7. Part of photosynthesis that absorbs energy from sunlight and transfers energy to the light-independent reactions
  4. 11. Series of proteins in the thylakoid and mitochondrial membranes that aid in converting ADP to ATP by transferring electrons
  5. 15. Low energy molecule that can be converted to ATP
  6. 17. Light-absorbing pigment molecule in photosynthetic organisms
  7. 18. Process of producing ATP by breaking down carbon-based molecules when oxygen is present
Down
  1. 1. Process that does not require oxygen to occur
  2. 2. Process by which ATP is synthesized by using chemicals as an energy source instead of light
  3. 5. Anaerobic process by which ATP is produced by glycolysis
  4. 6. Parts of photosynthesis that uses energy absorbed during the light-dependent reactions to synthesize carbohydrates
  5. 7. Product of fermentation in many types of cells, including human muscle cells
  6. 8. Anaerobic process in which glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate and two net ATP are produced
  7. 9. Process by which light energy is converted to chemical energy; produces sugar and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water
  8. 10. Enzyme that catalyzes the reaction and adds a high-energy phosphate group to ADP to form ATP
  9. 12. Process that requires oxygen to occur
  10. 13. Process by which a photosynthetic organism uses energy to synthesize simple sugars from CO2
  11. 14. High energy molecule that contains, within its bonds, energy that cells can use
  12. 16. Series of light-absorbing pigments and proteins that capture and transfer energy in the thylakoid membrane
