Across
- 1. A saclike photosynthetic membrane found inside chloroplasts.
- 7. A metabolic process that requires oxygen to occur.
- 9. Cycle The light-independent reactions of photosynthesis that use ATP and NADPH to build high-energy sugars.
- 10. Small openings on the underside of leaves that allow gas exchange.
- 11. The organelle in plant and algae cells where photosynthesis occurs.
- 14. Cycle The second stage of cellular respiration that produces carbon dioxide and electron carriers.
- 16. The process plants use to convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.
- 17. A lower-energy molecule that can be recharged into ATP by adding a phosphate group.
- 18. The simple sugar molecule produced during photosynthesis and broken down in respiration.
Down
- 2. A metabolic process that does not require oxygen.
- 3. An anaerobic process that allows cells to keep making small amounts of ATP without oxygen.
- 4. The organelle where the final stages of aerobic cellular respiration take place.
- 5. The first step of cellular respiration where glucose is split in half in the cytoplasm.
- 6. Acid A waste product produced by fermentation in animal muscle cells during intense exercise
- 8. Respiration The process that releases energy from food molecules in the presence of oxygen
- 10. The fluid-filled space surrounding the thylakoids inside a chloroplast.
- 12. An electron carrier molecule that transfers high-energy electrons during photosynthesis.
- 13. The green pigment inside chloroplasts that absorbs light energy.
