Photosynthesis and Respiration
Across
- 1. known as ethanol, this is produced from alcoholic fermentation
- 8. plants use this to create oxygen
- 9. respiration involving oxygen
- 16. series of electron transporters
- 18. set of reactions in the chloroplasts
- 20. organic acid, known for muscle soreness
- 22. flattened discs inside of a chloroplast, arraged in stacks or grana
Down
- 2. photosynthesis reactions caused by light
- 3. breakdown of glucose by enzymes
- 4. "powerhouse of the cell" respiration occurs here
- 5. this is where photosynthesis takes place
- 6. known as CO2, this is absorbed by plants in photosynthesis
- 7. known scientifically as H20, this is a reactant in photosynthesis
- 10. respiration not involving oxygen
- 11. process in which cells generate ATP, takes place in mitochondria
- 12. the chemical breakdown of a substance by bacteria, yeasts, or other microorganisms
- 13. known as simply O2, this is emitted by plants during photosynthesis
- 14. a simple sugar and also an important energy source
- 15. series of enzyme-mediated reactions
- 17. goal is to obtain ATP
- 19. supportive tissue in the clorophyll
- 21. "adenosine triphosphate" a rich energy molecule used for powering cell processes
