- 3. breaks down sugars to produce energy in the form of ATP
- 5. he natural compound present in green plants that gives them their color
- 8. end substances after a biological process has occurred
- 9. an organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production
- 13. 2 phosphate groups
- 14. substance that takes part in and undergoes change during a reaction
- 18. use stored chemical energy from the light-dependent reactions to “fix” CO2 and create a product that can be converted into glucose
- 19. splits glucose into two pyruvate molecules
- 20. the process by which organisms combine oxygen with foodstuff molecules, diverting the chemical energy in these substances into life-sustaining activities and discarding, as waste products, carbon dioxide and water.
Down
