Ecology Part 2

1. A membrane-bound organelle in green plant and algal cells that carries out photosynthesis.
2. The protein-rich semiliquid material in the interior of a chloroplast.
6. Pores on the leaf where O2 exits and CO2 enters
10. Converts light energy to the chemical energy of food
12. The biogeochemical cycle that describes the transformation and translocation of phosphorus in soil, water, and living and dead organic material.
14. The continuous movement of water within the Earth and atmosphere
16. The long-term warming of the planet's overall temperature
18. The light-absorbing green-coloured pigment that begins the process of photosynthesis.
19. The process in which carbon atoms continually travel from the atmosphere to the Earth and then back into the atmosphere

1. Long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns
3. Gases in the earth's atmosphere that trap heat.
4. A process by which the molecules of a solvent pass from a solution of low concentration to a solution of high concentration through a semi-permeable membrane.
5. A biogeochemical process through which nitrogen is converted into many forms, consecutively passing from the atmosphere to the soil to organism and back into the atmosphere
7. Living in the absence of air or free oxygen
8. A molecule containing three high energy phosphate bonds that acts as the primary energy-transferring molecule in a living organism.
9. The state when two solutions have equal concentration of solutes across a semipermeable membrane
11. A nonmetallic element that exists in its free form as a colorless, odorless gas and makes up about 21 percent of the Earth's atmosphere.
13. A colorless, odorless gas
15. Requiring the presence of air or free oxygen for life
17. The chief source of energy for living organisms.
