- 3. anaerobic process by which ATP is produced by glycolysis
- 5. process that requires oxygen to occur
- 9. a process by which some organisms use chemical energy instead of light energy to make energy-storing carbon-based molecules.
- 12. Acid a colorless syrupy organic acid formed in sour milk and produced in the muscle tissues during strenuous exercise
- 14. a lower-energy molecule that can be converted into ATP by the addition of a phosphate group
- 15. anaerobic process in which glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate and two net ATP are produced
- 16. Cycle process by which a photosynthetic organism uses energy to synthesize simple sugars from CO2
Down
- 1. a process that captures energy from sunlight to make sugars that store chemical energy
- 2. cycle the sequence of reactions by which most living cells generate energy during the process of aerobic respiration.
- 4. relating to, involving, or requiring an absence of free oxygen
- 6. a molecule that absorbs some of the energy in visible light
- 7. organelle composed of numerous membranes that are used to convert solar energy into chemical energy
- 8. an organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur
- 10. molecule that transfers energy from the breakdown of food molecules to cell processes
- 11. are stacks of coin-shaped, membrane-enclosed compartments
- 13. Respiration process of producing ATP by breaking down carbon-based molecules when oxygen is present
