Cellular Energy
Across
- 3. Process that does not require oxygen.
- 5. Process that requires oxygen to occur.
- 6. Process used by plants and other autotrophs to capture light energy from the sun and use it to power chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and energy-rich carbohydrates such as sugars and starches.
- 8. Organelle found in cells of plants and some other organisms that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy.
- 10. A chemical reaction where the change in the free energy is negative.
Down
- 1. Cell organelle that converts the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use.
- 2. A chemical reaction in which the standard change in free energy is positive, and an additional driving force is needed to perform this reaction.
- 4. Process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen.
- 7. Saclike photosynthetic membranes found in chloroplasts.
- 9. Fluid portion of the chloroplast, outside of the thylakoids.
