Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration
Across
- 1. Vascular tissue that carries glucose from the leaves to the rest of the plant
- 6. Energy rich molecule that is the basic source of energy for cells
- 8. Waxy covering on the surface of leaves that helps prevent water loss
- 9. Organelle in plant cells that is the site of photosynthesis
- 10. Form of respiration in the absence of oxygen that produces little ATP
- 11. Process of plants converting light energy from the sun into glucose
- 13. Green pigment in plants that absorbs light energy for photosynthesis
- 14. Works to regulate the opening and closing of the small pores on the surface of leaves
- 16. Series of inner membranes that increase the surface area for respiration
- 17. Openings on the underside of leaves where carbon dioxide enters and oxygen exits
Down
- 2. Organelle in plant and animal cells that is the site of respiration
- 3. Organism that can make its own food.
- 4. Organism that cannot make its own food
- 5. Form of respiration that requires oxygen and produces lots of ATP
- 7. Energy poor molecule that can be used by cells to store energy
- 12. Vascular tissue that carries water from the roots of plants to the leaves
- 15. process of breaking down glucose in the presence of oxygen to release energy
