Energy Transformations and Cycles
Across
- 6. Reactions that need oxygen to function
- 7. Sphere of Earth, all the soil and rocks on Earth
- 8. Pigment in chloroplasts, used to trap light energy during photosynthesis
- 11. Organelle:Site of steps 2 and 3 of aerobic respiration
- 14. Nutrient, used in the phosphates of nucleic acids and phospholipids of membranes, often limited
- 16. Substances created during a chemical reaction, made from reactants
- 17. Organisms that make their own food
- 19. Nutrient, used in proteins and nucleic acids,must be 'fixed' for living things to use, often limited
- 21. Second step of anaerobic respiration, 2 types include alcoholic and lactic acid
- 22. Nutrient, forms the backbone for all macromolecules in living things
- 23. Anything that has mass and takes up space, makes up everything
- 25. First step of photosynthesis, uses sunlight to split H2O and make ATP and NADPH
- 26. Type of organism that must eat other organisms to obtain energy
Down
- 1. Type of organism that breaks down biotic compounds into abiotic compounds
- 2. Second step of aerobic respiration, pyruvate is broken down while NADH and FADH2 are made
- 3. Second step of photosynthesis, uses energy in ATP and NADPH to make glucose
- 4. Sphere of Earth, all the water on Earth
- 5. Reactions that don't need oxygen to function
- 6. Adenosine Diphosphate
- 9. Sphere of Earth, all of life on Earth
- 10. Organelle: Site of photosynthesis
- 12. Adenosine Triphosphate
- 13. Process of breaking down glucose to make ATP
- 14. Process of using light energy to make glucose
- 15. Sphere of Earth, all the gases on Earth
- 18. Substances at the beginning of a chemical reaction, changed into products
- 20. Third step of aerobic respiration , NADH and FADH2 are used to make 32 units of ATP
- 24. First step of aerobic respiration, breaks down glucose into pyruvate, makes some NADH
