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