Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration
Across
- 2. used by autotrophs to use the sun's energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen
- 3. organelles found in plant cells; where photosynthesis takes place
- 6. stack of thylakoids
- 7. main energy source that cells use for most of their work
- 8. Anything that has mass and takes up space
- 12. A green pigment found in the chloroplasts of plants that absorbs energy from the sun
- 14. set of reactions in photosynthesis that do not require light; energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compunds such as sugar; also called the Calvin Cycle
Down
- 1. process that releases energy from food in the presence of oxygen
- 4. reactions of photosynthesis that use energy from light to produce ATP and NADPH
- 5. where the Calvin cycle takes place
- 9. a flattened membrane sac inside the chloroplast, used to convert light energy to chemical energy. This is where the light reactions take place.
- 10. the ability to do work or cause change
- 11. the stage of photosynthesis that does not require light
- 13. powerhouse of the cell, organelle that is the site of ATP production
