  1. 4. the green pigment of plant cells that is necessary for photosythesis
  2. 6. the anaerobic breakdown of sugars to pyruvate and then to either lactic acid or carbon dioxide and alcohol
  3. 7. describes any chemical process that requires oxygen
  4. 8. a series of compounds that transfer electrons from electron donor substances to electron acceptors
  5. 11. the portion of photosynthesis that requires light energy
  6. 12. material within a chloroplast that surrounds the thylakoids
  7. 13. the portion of photosynthesis that does not require light energy to proceed
  8. 14. the second phase of aerobic cellular respiration in which pyruvate reacts with enzymes to produce acetly CoA, carbon dioxide, hydrogen ions, ATP, and electrons
Down
  1. 1. describes any chemical process that does not require oxygen
  2. 2. the process whereby plants, algae and some bacteria form simple sugars from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of light and chlorophyll
  3. 3. a membrane-bound compartment within chloroplasts
  4. 5. the process by which the cells break down glucose or other nutrients to produce usable energy
  5. 9. the first phase of cellular respiration in which glucose is broken down into pyruvate
  6. 10. the portion of photosynthesis that uses energy captured during the light-dependent phase to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugars
