Across
  1. 9. Electron Acceptor: Molecule in chloroplasts that accepts high-energy eletrons
  2. 11. group of pigments and proteins in chloroplasts that accepts high-energy electrons
  3. 13. an organism that makes its own food, like plants, through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis
  4. 15. organelle in plant cells and some algae where photosynthesis takes place
  5. 16. Reactions: first part of photo synthesis where light energy becomes chemical energy. This occurs in the thlakoid membranes of chloroplasts
  6. 17. a stack of thylakoid membranes in chloroplast
  7. 20. Transport Chain: series o molecules found in the mitochondria and chloroplasts that move electron to make energy
  8. 23. processes that happen without oxygen
  9. 24. Acid Fermentation: type of fermentation that makes lactic acid, common in muscles
  10. 25. a molecule that absorbs light, giving color to plants
Down
  1. 1. Red, orange, or ywlloe pigment that help in photosynthesis
  2. 2. an organism that gets energy by consuming other organisms for its energy and nutrition
  3. 3. an anaerobic process that follows glycolysis, making lactic acid or alcohol
  4. 4. the first stage cellular respiration in which glucose is broken down into pyruvic acid and ATP
  5. 5. a sac inside chloroplasts where light Reactions occur
  6. 6. Pathway: an adaption some plants use to store CO2 at night for daytime photosynthesis
  7. 7. Acid: a 3-cardon molecule formed during glycolysis, important in cellular respiration
  8. 8. fluid in chloroplast around the grana where the Calvin cycle happens
  9. 10. respiration: Process where cells break down food to make energy or ATP
  10. 11. process where cardon is taken from the air by green plants, algae, and some bacteria. it makes glucose from sunlight, water, and cardon, dioxide
  11. 12. Fixation: Process of converting CO2 into organic compounds, like in photosynthesus
  12. 13. fermentation: type of fermentation that makes alcohol and CO2 as seen in yeasts and some bateria
  13. 14. green pigment found in chloroplasts
  14. 18. tiny openings on leaves that let CO2 in and O2 out
  15. 19. Respiration: respiration that uses oxygen to produce energy
  16. 21. Cycle: part of photosynthesis where CO2 is turned into glucose using ATP energy
  17. 22. Cycle: series of reactions in mitochondria that produce energy and CO2 during aerobic respiration
