CROXON PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND RESPIRATION
Across
- 1. Chemical energy carrying molecule that has given up some chemical energy so that you can do what you do
- 7. Organism such as plants that make their own food
- 9. Process of making sugar from light energy, carbon dioxide, and water
- 11. The actual building process outside of the thylakoid using energy from ATP to build glucose (C6H12O6)
- 12. The product that plants make in light, using carbon dioxide and water in the process of photosynthesis
- 13. Process yeast cells can use in the absence of oxygen resulting in the formation of alcohol
- 14. Respiration in the presence of oxygen
- 15. Electrons move from molecule to molecule resulting in the formation of ATP
- 16. Second stage in releasing the energy from pyruvic acid produced from glycolysis
- 18. Respiration without oxygen
- 19. Organisms such as animals that capture and eat food instead of making their own food
- 20. First stage in breaking down glucose into two pyruvic acids which can enter the Krebs Cycle to make more ATP
Down
- 2. Light energy absorbing molecule that generates electrons by breaking apart water molecules
- 3. Photosynthetic membrane in the chloroplast of plants that looks like a stack of coins
- 4. In chloroplasts, the area outside of the thylakoid membrane or stack of coins where the Calvin Cycle begins
- 5. Organelle in plant leaves that contain the machinery for photosynthesis
- 6. Chemical energy carrying molecule that contains a lot of stored energy
- 8. Process of breaking down sugar into energy (ATP) we need to get out of bed and get busy
- 10. Substance (pigment or light absorbing molecule) that can gather energy from light
- 17. Number of high energy ATP molecules generated from one glucose molecule
