Across
  1. 1. a closed ecosystem made by humans
  2. 4. an organism that gets energy storage molecules by breaking down dead matter
  3. 10. the part of a cell where cellular respiration happens
  4. 12. the chemical reaction between oxygen and glucose that release energy into cells and carbon dioxide
  5. 13. matter that makes up the nonliving parts of an ecosystem (air, water, rocks)
  6. 15. a type of atom that makes up carbon dioxide and energy storage molecules
  7. 16. a type of energy storage molecule
  8. 19. a molecule that organisms can use to release the energy they need to survive
  9. 20. a type of energy storage molecule
  10. 21. something that results from a process
  11. 22. a type of energy storage molecule made of many glucose molecules connected together
  12. 23. all the living and nonliving things interacting in a particular area
  13. 24. a set of interacting parts forming a complex whole
Down
  1. 1. matter that makes us the living and dead organisms in an ecosystem
  2. 2. a molecule made of carbon and oxygen atoms (CO2)
  3. 3. a group of atoms joined together in a particular way
  4. 5. the ability to make things move or change
  5. 6. a ending substance that is made during a chemical reaction
  6. 7. the process where producers use sunlight to change carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose
  7. 8. an organism that needs to eat in order to get ESM
  8. 9. something that is required for a process
  9. 11. the part of a cell where photosynthesis happens
  10. 14. a starting substance that is part of a chemical reaction
  11. 17. an organism that can make its own energy storage molecules
  12. 18. living things, such as plants, animals, and bacteria
  13. 20. a molecule that organisms can use to release energy, and that is made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms
