Across
  1. 4. Four electrons are removed from four molecules of cytochrome c and transferred to molecular oxygen (O2), producing two molecules of water.
  2. 8. In this complex, two electrons are removed from NADH and ultimately transferred to a lipid-soluble carrier, ubiquinone (UQ).
  3. 9. __ATP are made from the products of 1 molecule of glucose.
  4. 10. How many Phases does the Light-independent reaction cycle have?
  5. 11. The sequence of reactions by which most living cells generate energy during the process of aerobic respiration.
  6. 12. It takes place in the thylakoid membranes of organelles called chloroplasts.
  7. 13. In this stage of the dark reaction cycle the enzyme RuBisCO incorporates carbon dioxide into an organic molecule.
  8. 14. A system of molecules through which electrons are transferred to generate ATP.
  9. 15. A green pigment, present in all green plants and in cyanobacteria, responsible for the absorption of light to provide energy for photosynthesis.

  1. 1. An enzyme that creates the energy storage molecule adenosine triphosphate.
  2. 2. This reaction cycle is also called the dark reactions, and it occurs in the stroma.
  3. 3. A set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate, and then release waste products.
  4. 5. A process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities.
  5. 6. A type of organelle known as a plastid, characterized by its two membranes and a high concentration of chlorophyll.
  6. 7. The metabolic process that serves as the foundation for both aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration.
