Across
  1. 2. requiring oxygen; the final steps of cellular respiration are ___
  2. 4. organism capable of synthesizing its own food
  3. 7. a type of fermentation muscle cells undergo;pyruvic acid + NADH --> lactic acid + NAD+ is known as ___ ___ fermentation
  4. 9. reactions of photosynthesis that use energy from light to produce ATP and NADPH
  5. 11. carbohydrate;simple sugar created by plants and consumed by animals
  6. 13. The second of two major stages in photosynthesis, involving atmospheric CO2 fixation and reduction of the fixed carbon into carbohydrate.These reactions are also called the Calvin Cycle.
  7. 14. organelles found in plant cells and eukaryotic algae that conduct photosynthesis
  8. 15. process by which plants and some other organisms use light energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and high-energy carbohydrates such as sugars and starches
  9. 17. a membrane-bound organelle found in most eukaryotic cells that generate energy
  10. 20. is a fold in the inner membrane of a mitochondria
Down
  1. 1. a large group of organic compounds occurring in foods and living tissues and including sugars, starch, and cellulose
  2. 3. the tough, flexible but sometimes fairly rigid layer found in plants, bacteria, fungi, and algae. Not found in animals and protozoa
  3. 5. waste product of plants, taken in by animals
  4. 6. organism that obtains energy from the foods it consumes
  5. 8. the process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen
  6. 10. a minute epidermal pore in a leaf or stem through which gases and water vapor can pass
  7. 12. are a group of naturally occurring molecules that include fats, waxes, sterols, fat-soluble vitamins
  8. 16. the process that releases energy from food molecules by producing ATP in the absence of oxygen
  9. 18. dioxide heavy odorless colorless gas formed during respiration and by the decomposition of organic substances; absorbed from the air by plants in photosynthesis
  10. 19. not requiring oxygen; because fermentation does not require oxygen, it is said to be ___
