  1. 3. Series of biochemical reactions that occur during the light-independent phase of photosynthesis
  2. 5. Initial step in cellular respiration, occurring in the cytoplasm, where glucose is broken down into pyruvate molecules
  3. 7. A gas involved in both photosynthesis and cellular respiration. It is absorbed during photosynthesis and released as a byproduct of cellular respiration.
  4. 10. Organelles responsible for cellular respiration in eukaryotic cells, where ATP is synthesized through the process of oxidative phosphorylation.
Down
  1. 1. Simple sugar produced during photosynthesis in plants
  2. 2. Green pigment in plants that captures light energy during photosynthesis
  3. 4. Helps our cells get energy from food and gets rid of waste in the form of carbon dioxide.
  4. 6. Transfer electrons and generate a proton gradient, ultimately leading to ATP synthesis.
  5. 8. The primary energy carrier molecule in cells, produced during cellular respiration and utilized in various cellular processes, including photosynthesis.
  6. 9. Byproduct of photosynthesis, released into the atmosphere
