- 6. a metabolic process that requires oxygen.
- 7. light absorbing colored molecule such as chlorophyll and carotenoid in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts.
- 12. chloroplasts one of the stacked, flattened, pigment containing membranes where light dependent reactions occur
- 13. energy carrying biological molecule when broken down drives cellular activities.
- 14. catabolic pathway in which organic molecules are broken down to release energy for use by the cell.
- 15. enzyme that converts inorganic carbon dioxide molecules into organic molecules during the final step of the calvin cycle.
Down
- 1. all of the chemical reactions that occur within an organism.
- 2. light independent reactions during phase two of photosynthesis in which energy is stored in organic molecules as glucose.
- 3. ability to do work; energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed.
- 4. the study of the flow and transformation of energy in the universe.
- 5. fluid filled space outside the grana in which light dependent reactions take place
- 8. two phased anabolic pathway in which the sun's light energy is converted to chemical energy for use by the cell.
