Across
  1. 3. the total dry weight of organic material
  2. 4. the factor that limits the rate of a reaction
  3. 5. the folding of the inner mitochondrial membrane into the matrix, thus increasing the total surface area of the inner membrane
  4. 9. an organism that makes its own food from inorganic substances, using light or chemical energy; includes green plants, algae, and certain bacteria
  5. 14. a molecule used to convey carbon atoms to the Krebs cycle
  6. 17. the stack of thylakoid membranes in a chloroplast that contain chlorophyll
  7. 18. an organism that makes its own food from inorganic substances, using light as its primary energy source
  8. 19. an organism that requires oxygen to survive and reproduce
  9. 21. a gel-like fluid in mitochondria, where the Krebs cycle (citric acid cycle) of cellular respiration takes place
  10. 22. an organelle within the cytoplasm that is the site of aerobic cellular respiration, which releases energy for the cell
  11. 23. a three-carbon molecule that is the end product of glycolysis
  12. 24. (stage 1) it requires light energy that is absorbed by chlorophyll to split water molecules to produce oxygen, hydrogen ions, and ATP
  13. 25. the converstion of atmospheric carbon from carbon dioxide into carbohydrates in the stroma of chloroplasts in eukaryotic cells
  14. 26. an organism that cannot make its own organic compounds from simple inorganic material; it depends on other organisms for nutrients and energy requirements
  15. 28. a biochemical pathways that requires oxygen and takes place in the mitochondria as part of cellular respiration; acetyl CoA, the product of glycolysis, is broken down to produce carbon dioxide, water, and energy in the form of ATP
  16. 29. a plant that uses CO2 to make a C4 storage compound which moves from the mesophyll cells to the bundle sheat cells and a lower O2 concentration, thereby reducing photorespiration
  17. 30. the process in which plants bind with oxygen instead of carbon dioxide in high oxygen concentrations
  18. 31. a biochemical pathway in which sugar molecules are produced from carbon dioxide
  19. 32. plant a plant that shuts its stomata during the day and fixes carbon during the night when its stomata are open; an adaptation to hot dry envirnments and to reduce photorespiration and increase photosynthesis
Down
  1. 1. a molecule that absorbs certain wavelengths of liight and reflects all others
  2. 2. a form of anaerobic respiration that occurs in animal cells and some anaerobic bacteria; glucose is converted into lactic acid
  3. 6. an organism that does not require oxygen to survive and reproduce
  4. 7. the interconnected, folded membrane within a chloroplast
  5. 8. a plant that directly uses CO2 as an input for the first stage of the Calvin cycle
  6. 10. a form of anaerobic respiration; glucose is converted to ethanol
  7. 11. (stage 2) through a series of reactions, carbon dioxide, hydrogen ions, and ATP produce carbohydrate
  8. 12. photosynthetic cells arranged tightly packed around the vein of a leaf (deeper in leaf tissue than mesophyll cells)
  9. 13. the jelly-like, semifluid interior of a chloroplast
  10. 15. a family of membrane-bound proteins that carry out electron transport; located in the mitochondrial inner membrane and in the chloroplast thylakoid membrane
  11. 16. an organism that makes its own food from inorganic subtances, using chemicals as the primary energy source
  12. 20. a fuel that has used biomass as its original source
  13. 27. the photosynthetic cells of two types, palisade and spongy, that occupy the inside of the leaf between the two outer epidermal layers
