photosynthesis and cell respiration
Across
- 2. is the material (or tissue) in between a eukaryotic organism's cells.
- 3. glycosis andthe krebs cycle produce this
- 4. the material or protoplasm within a living cell, excluding the nucleus.
- 6. the process by which organisms use oxygen to turn fuel, such as fats and sugars, into chemical energy.
- 8. the end of glycosis
- 9. a series of reactions that extract energy from glucose by splitting it into two three-carbon molecules called pyruvates.
- 10. the type of respiration through which cells can break down sugars to generate energy in the absence of oxygen.
- 11. a series of chemical reactions that break down glucose to produce ATP
- 12. a series of four protein complexes that couple redox reactions, creating an electrochemical gradient that leads to the creation of ATP in a complete system named oxidative phosphorylation.
Down
- 1. a simple sugar which is an important energy source in living organisms and is a component of many carbohydrates.
- 2. an organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur. It has a double membrane, the inner layer being folded inward to form
- 4. a ridge or crest
- 5. electron transport chain produces this
- 7. the main source of energy for cells and an important part of aerobic respiration.
