Chapter 8 Vocabulary
Across
- 3. Forming the energy-storage molecule NADPH.
- 5. Catabolic pathway in which organic molecules are broken down to release energy for use by the cell.
- 9. Includes the Krebs cycle and electron transport and is an aerobic process.
- 10. Anaerobic process; the first stage of cellular respiration in which glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate.
- 11. The fluid-filled space that is outside the grana.
- 12. All of the chemical reactions in a cell are referred to as the cell's metabolism.
- 14. Energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created nor destroyed.
- 17. the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle.
- 18. Is the study of the flow and transformation of energy in the universe.
- 20. are found in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts.
- 21. Which energy is stored in organic molecules such as glucose.
Down
- 1. (ATP) Is the most important biological molecule that provides chemical energy.
- 2. Do not require oxygen.
- 4. Anabolic pathway in which light energy from the sun is converted to chemical energy for use by the cell.
- 6. in the chloroplast, are one of the stacked flattened, pigment-containing membranes in which light-dependent reactions occur.
- 7. is a metabolic process that requires oxygen.
- 8. process in which NAD+ is regenerated, allowing cells to maintain glycolysis in the absence of oxygen.
- 13. A stacked portion of the thylakoid membrane in the chloroplast.
- 15. Enzyme converts inorganic carbon dioxide molecules into organic molecules during the final step of the Calvin cycle.
- 16. Energy cannot be converted without the loss of usable energy, that is entropy-disorder or unusable energy increases.
- 19. Cellular processes require energy-the ability to do work.
