CELL ENERGY

2. First of reaction in cellular respiration during which one molecule of glucose (a 6 carbon compound) is transformed in 2 molecules of pyruvic acid ( a 3 carbon compound)
4. Process used by plants and other autotrophs to capture light energy and use it to power chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and energy-rich carbohydrate such as sugar and starches.
6. Organelle found in cells of plants and some other organisms that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy.
9. Process that energy from food in the presence of oxygen.
11. Elements or compounds produced by a chemical reaction.
13. Set of reaction in photosynthesis that do not require light; energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugar; also called the Calvin Cycle.
14. elements or compounds that enter into a chemical reaction.
15. Are rod-shaped organelles that can be considered the power generators of the cell, converting oxygen and nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

1. Set of reaction in photosynthesis that use energy from light to produce ATP and NADPH.
3. Second stage of cellular respiration in which pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide in series of energy-extracting reactions.
5. The equation for photosynthesis states that the combination of carbon dioxide, water and light energy produces a carbohydrate (glucose) and oxygen.
7. Series of electron carrier proteins that shuttle high-energy electrons during ATP-generating reactions.
8. Aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria and requires oxygen and glucose, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy.
10. Breakdown of glucose created ATP, creates enough energy to produce three molecules of ATP (HIGH energy).
12. When energy get used it creates ADP (is low energy).
