Across
- 1. Lower epidermis, forms stomatas
- 6. Oxidized form of FADH2, gains electrons from Krebs cycle
- 7. Make own energy
- 8. Plants that use a specialized pathway to fix carbon dioxide that minimizes photorespiration and is efficient in hot, dry environments, maize, sugarcane, and sorghum
- 10. Three carbon sugar, product of Calvin Cycle
- 11. Turning one glucose molecule into two pyruvates
- 15. Shows the light wavelengths absorbed by a given pigment
- 16. Uses energy from electrons to pump proton gradient
- 21. Reduced form of NAD+, provides electrons for ETC
- 23. Uses a highly electronegative element other than oxygen
- 25. Eat organisms to gain energy
- 29. An organism that requires oxygen to survive and grow
- 32. Enzyme that catalyzes carbon fixation
- 33. Disks in chloroplasts where photosynthesis takes place
- 35. Organisms that can grow in the presence or absence of oxygen
- 36. Has access to both substrates and contains cylindrical cells
- 37. Waxy outer layer of leaf that prevents damage
- 38. A water-efficient photosynthetic pathway to survive in dry environments, cacti, succulents, orchids, and pineapples
- 39. Electron acceptor, turns into NADPH
Down
- 2. A group of proteins essential for cellular respiration and other metabolic processes
