Matter and Energy
Across
- 2. Evaporation of water from the stoma of leaves
- 4. Chemical energy molecule used by cells that is produced during cellular respiration
- 7. Organelle found in plant cells that is the site of photosynthesis
- 9. Process in which bacteria that live at hydrothermal vents use chemical energy to produce glucose
- 11. Pigment found in chloroplasts that absorbs light energy and reflects green light
- 13. Process by which light energy is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen
- 14. Animals that eat only plants
- 15. Animals that eat both plant and animals
- 18. Process by which bacteria in the soil convert organic nitrogen into atmospheric nitrogen
- 19. Process in which oxygen and glucose are converted into carbon dioxide, water, and ATP energy
- 20. Process by which bacteria that live on roots of legume plants fix atmospheric nitrogen into a form usable by plants
Down
- 1. Organisms that must eat other organisms to gain energy
- 3. Animals that eat dead plant material
- 5. Animals that eat other animals
- 6. Organisms that use photosynthesis or chemosynthesis to produce chemical energy in the form of glucose

- 10. Organelle found in plant and animal cells that is the site of cellular respiration
- 12. Plants with root nodules that contain nitrogen fixing bacteria
- 16. The breakdown of organic wastes by various organisms that releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere
- 17. The burning of fossil fuels and wood which releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere
