  1. 1. A type of anaerobic respiration that allows ATP to be made through glycolysis.
  2. 3. A 3-carbon molecule that results from the splitting of glucose
  3. 5. Type of cellular respiration that requires oxygen.
  4. 7. Second stage of aerobic respiration in which two pyruvate (pyruvic acid) molecules from the first stage react to form ATP, NADH, and FADH₂.
  5. 8. First stage of cellular respiration in which glucose is split, in the absence of oxygen, to form two molecules of pyruvate (pyruvic acid) and two (net) molecules of ATP.
  6. 9. Series of electron-transport molecules that pass high-energy electrons from molecule to molecule and capture their energy (3 letters)
  7. 10. The molecule that results from dephosphorylation (a phosphate group is removed). (3 letters)
  8. 11. Molecule that acts as an electron carrier in cellular respiration. (4 letters)

  1. 2. Type of cellular respiration that does not require oxygen.
  2. 4. Organelle in eukaryotic cells that makes energy available to the cell in the form of ATP molecules.
  3. 6. Simple carbohydrate with the chemical formula C₆H₁₂O₆ that is the nearly universal food for life
  4. 12. Energy-carrying molecule that cells use to power their metabolic processes. (3 letters)
